Council crackdown on water extraction

Multiple compliance actions

The proposed order to stop activity comes as Tweed Shire Councillors considered several reports on water extraction operators across the shire during last Thursday’s Council meeting. Councillors voted to seek legal advice in relation to Mount Warning Spring

Water, located at 2574 Kyogle Road, Kunghur, for the interpretation of their development consent, to determine the “prospects of prosecution or the prospects of restraining actions”. Council will also write to the owners and advise them they are required to comply with their current consent and to submit their development application modifications within one month of notification. No further details were provided due to confidentiality. Council will call on their solicitors to provide legal advice as they continue to investigate a water extraction operation at Bryens Road, Nobbys Creek. The motion seeks advice to guide Council “on the extent of any breach of consent conditions, an any subsequent required enforcement actions”. Councillors voted to take no action against breaches that occurred in 2006/2007 at an Edwards Lane, Kynnumboon, water extraction operation “given the cooperative response Council has had to the alleged breaches”. Council will request reports from the water extraction site for the past seven years, which could include log books and water supply records to understand the number of truck movements and water extracted.

Urliup Road helipad knocked back

By Jonathon Howard THE MAJORITY of councillors voted to refuse an application for a helipad at 477 Urliup Road, that was intended for Matthew Karlos, the son of property owner Larry Karlos, to fly to and from his workplace in Brisbane. The motion was raised by Mayor Katie Milne and Cr Reece Byrnes who called for the helipad to be refused because “the development is considered to be unacceptable due to noise impacts on the neighbours including cumulative impact from bulk water extraction trucks currently accessing the site”. This is despite the application being recommended for approval by Council staff with conditions that included limiting the number of flights and hours of operation. The motion also raised issue with assumptions made in the noise report, especially the proposed helicopter flight path, which would change based on wind direction and could have further noise impacts on neighbouring properties. Council’s Environmental Health officers supported the noise report supplied by

the applicant, but recommended the hours of operation be limited to 7am to 6.30pm Monday to Saturday and 8am to 6.30pm Sundays to ensure compliance with EPA noise criteria and to “protect amenity in the area outside of those hours”. The application had sought to use the helipad for up to seven flight movements per week between the hours of 6.30am to 6.30pm, Monday to Sunday, with the nearest property being 221m away. Logbooks, which were request by Mayor Milne, had also not been provided at the time of the Council meeting. The applicant disagreed with Council’s assessment and said restricting the hours of operation would be “unreasonable” and believed the hours of operation should be “unlimited” and dictated by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and “not Council”. “To support this position the applicant supplied an additional/addendum Noise Report which specifies that the helicopter activity would not generate noise beyond 55dBA at nearby residences,” Council’s report read.

“The applicant has stated that this is comparable to a normal vehicle moving to and from the site.” Council said they had already received multiple complaints the helicopter was operating without approval and received 10 submissions opposing the helipad when it was placed on public exhibition. “Council is in receipt of several complaints and allegations that the helicopter is currently operating without development consent and at very early hours of the morning,” Council’s report read. “Council officers have reiterated to the proponent that the operating hours have been limited in accordance with NSW Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) Noise Control Guideline and are considered appropriate to protect the amenity of the area given its rural setting.” Cr Reece Byrnes, Cr Chris Cherry, Cr Ron Cooper and Mayor Katie Milne voted to deny the application, whilst Cr James Owen, Cr Warren Polglase and Cr Pryce Allsop voted against refusing the helipad.

Council can commence proceedings in the NSW Land and Environment Court to enforce the order,” a Council spokesperson said. “The recipient of the order also the right to challenge the order.” Tweed Shire Councillors voted five to two at their July 19 meeting to take the compliance action. The motion called “to cease using certain bores not approved, cease using the tanks not approved, cease hours of operation outside of the approved hours, cease using trucks greater than six metres in length, cease trips greater than that allowed by the consent, and demolish and remove structures not approved and thereafter, subject to consideration of any representations received, issue a Development Control Order”. The Urliup Road site also currently has an appeal with the Land and Environment Court over Council’s refusal of their application to expand their business by increasing their permitted truck size from six to 19 metres and to upgrade Urliup Road to accomodate the larger trucks.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Council has issued a proposed order to stop activity at the 477 Urliup Road water extraction facility, operated by the Karlos family, but has denied reports they have ordered them to shut down completely. Contrary to recent reports from other media sources, Council said the Karlos family water extraction operation, known as Enfilat, was not ordered to stop its operations and said there is “no order” against the operator, instead Council said it has “issued a notice of a proposed order”. “The proposed order seeks Enfilat to stop activity that Council considers there is a need for approval and that approval is not in place,” a spokesperson for Council said. “The proposed order does not require the approved water extraction activity to stop, only the parts of the activity that Council considers aren’t approved by Council for the use, such as use of additional storage tanks and bores.” Council said the company was requested to respond to the notice of the proposed order by Wednesday, August 8. The Weekly also questioned what action Council could take if the proposed order was ignored or the company refused to comply. “If Council issues the order following the representations made by the company and the order is not complied with

Unite and call forth rain

Actually there is something we can do about having rainfall. Firstly, we have to realise and admit that freshwater is Australia’s number one resource. Why aren’t we catching more rainwater when it falls rather than having it run into drains out to sea? Why haven’t we built pipelines from northern Australia to catch the wet season water that escapes out to sea unused? Why do we whinge if we have cloudy or wet weather? So let us now remember a time when we had fun in the rain or a rainy day made something good happen. Now use that feeling and then call forth rain to fall in inland NSW and Qld. Because it is in the best interests of all, your intention and call which carries an electromagnetic charge, actually charges and permeates the atmosphere which will create the conditions for rainfall. All ancient spiritual texts tell us we can do this if our intentions are in alignment with the best interests of all. We are not playing God, but rather using God power to assist our farmers, the animals and the environment itself. Surely a blessed thing. Thanks for the rain life, we really appreciate it. Dave Burdon, Tweed Heads Wild fires in California and Greece, record temperatures in Europe and Asia, drought in UK needing water to be pumped out of the Lake District, and one of the worst droughts on record here in Australia. The prediction that El Nino is forecast to cause below average spring rainfall seems to be oblivious to some councillors and Council staff who are supporting water extraction being introduced across the shire. Already an application for another extraction of 38 million litres and many more on the horizon. Do these people even comprehend the water problem that we have?

Profits and capitalism

The very word makes a business person’s eyes light up. It’s the main reason for investment in this wonderful system we have, called capitalism. Fair enough, one could say. But is it fair? In my opinion no. In a lot of cases it is becoming more and more obvious that profits are obtained by very dubious methods. For instance , petrol prices rise every holiday season. Grocery packaging where the amount of product is reduced, but the price is much the same. I bought my favourite jam recently and upon using it, I could only describe it as gelatinous slop and upon reading the label found that it had been made in Poland. Even meat, quite often, does not have much fat trimmed off it. An old trick, making a comeback, it seems. Then, of course there are the financial institutions. Oh dear, finally, it is all becoming public, and rightly so. But let’s have the lot. The directors, the board members, the biggest shareholders, the golden handshakes, the salaries. Those of us who have been around for some decades have long been aware that fees and charges have been climbing

spectacularly, to the point where they are the main earners of profits. Millions were not enough, it has to be billions now. Now to the local scene. The most precious commodity of all, water. Is the Council serious? Is the State Government serious? This is something that should never have been allowed, ever. A natural resource plundered, ratepayers pay for improved roads, for individuals to make the easiest of profits. Doesn’t anyone remember what happened in Perth where they relied on aquifers for years as the main water supply? Hasn’t anyone caught on yet that we could be in for the worst summer on record? As a former rural landholder I say don’t do it. We are already into the worst drought ever for NSW. Yes, profits are worshipped above all else, but, to quote the words used at the Royal Commission, we should be asking ourselves, are some of them “morally or ethically wrong”? Natural disasters and record weather extremes are occurring all over the world . Wars and unrest are just as bad as ever and world leaders are either despots, totally inept or complete clowns. What has that got to do with profits? Well that’s for you to decide. But, to look at it from a different angle, it is interesting to note that in the end of days it has been predicted that there will be many false prophets. Maybe they just spelt that word wrong in the translation of the bible. Alan Davis, Pottsville

Water levels are precious

NSW is experiencing its worst drought in over fifty years and such occurrences are predicted to increase. We need to take great care our own water resources here remain intact. The ‘War on Waste’ ABC program recently also showed that the water mining industry has us all increasing plastic pollution and drinking water of lower quality than tap water. Let’s stop supporting it especially when it is at the expense of our own precious water levels. Nola Firth, Murwillumbah

Men’s Shed for everyone

I was dismayed to read the letter which appeared in the Tweed Daily News issue (August 1, 2018) headed “Disability Snub” in which Peter Leith of Bogangar complained that, on making enquiries about the Pottsville and District Men’s Shed, he was told that we do not have the facilities to accommodate members with his physical limitations. If his enquiries were made when the shed was initially located at the Pottsville Beach Primary School it is quite possible that he was informed

that disabled access was difficult and that the security measures associated with operating on the cchool campus might prove problematic. However, if his enquiries were more recent and after we relocated to the new purpose built Shed at the Black Rocks Sports Field, it seems obvious that some misunderstanding has occurred. The shed currently has 64 members who, predominantly, are aged 65 to 80 and, as you might expect, several of them have disabilities and other health issues. For example, we have one member who has a full time carer, another has a guide dog which accompanies him to the shed and joint replacements and hearing aids abound. Furthermore, we have recently been discussing with the management of the Bupa Care Facility the possibility of some of their residents becoming involved with the shed. Most of our members become actively involved in working on various projects, others simply enjoy the “mateship” ethos of the shed. There is no discrimination of any kind. We have a “Getting to know you” procedure, whereby anyone interested is welcome to visit the shed as many times as they like to satisfy themselves that being a “shedder” is for them before they decide to make a formal application for membership. The Shed is currently open on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings, 9am until noon and I would encourage anyone interested in joining or who might just want to look around, including Mr Leith, to pay us a visit. John Wells., Secretary, Pottsville & District Men’s Shed

Hospital now a football

Politely it’s called the hospital debate; in reality, it’s just three political sides taking up opposing positions. Nothing new in that; but you need an “app” to keep up with the hypocrisy and manoeuvres. The end game: to win the next Tweed state election. The LNP government, which has underfunded The Tweed Hospital for several years because the world revolves around Sydney, kicked the football off on June 30 with the announcement of a new $534 million dollar hospital on farming land at Cudgen/Kingscliff. Justine’s ALP mob immediately stirred up the possum up with a local farmer “red soil revolt” and claims of a failure to consult the community, Mayor Katie Milne and the Greens joined in. Shortly later the ALP NSW Opposition Leader and Justine’s hubby (the nominated ALP

candidate running for Tweed) announced the new hospital would be built on land owned by Leda Developments at Kings Forest. Mayor Katie and the Greens balked. The owner of Leda Holdings which owns Kings Forest had made the Mayor’s life hell through years of prolonged defamation court proceedings. So Katie used Council to formulate a committee known as the Tweed Valley Hospital Development Committee Reference Group “TVHDCRC”, which has now thankfully shortened its name to the “Relocation Committee” which actually doesn’t want the hospital to relocate anywhere but stay where it is at Tweed Heads? Neither the ALP or Greens want “Mr 100% for the Tweed” Geoff Provost to be able to put out positive election material about the new hospital. So Justine went in ‘boots and all” with her divide and conquer tactics. Problem is that the Greens don’t like the ALP choice of Kings Forest. Additionally: game on in Tweed has a much bigger element than a new half a million-dollar hospital because the governance of the entire state of NSW will swing on which major party wins the electorate. Question: will the Greens finally spit the dummy and preference Geoff ? Because they know they cannot win in their own right. Hence: no new hospital at Tweed Heads, unless someone does a deal? Answer: Looks like the most intense “last vote standing” election for Tweed ever. Terry Sharples, Tweed Heads

Thank you to Justine MP

Fol l ow i ng a broke n l e g i n December, 2017, and a knee replacement on the opposite leg in January, 2018, I was rejected by Centrelink for sickness benefits, then Newstart disability allowance. As I was due to retire in March 2018, I submitted my application on February 26 for the age pension. On July 23 I was rejected. Following this up Justine Elliot and her staff, particularly, Simone Wong, followed through on this injustice. On July 27 I received a call from Centrelink and as of today (August 2) I have been officially notified that my pension has been granted. Thank you to Justine Elliot and staff.

Water extraction

Maybe they should ask the farmers in the outback who are now reliant on the groundwater that they can still access after having their dams and creeks parched dry. The backflip by the young and inexperienced Cr Reece Byrnes is the reason that this extraction can continue. After voting to pursue banning this activity he changed his mind and is now supporting the extraction. Now I fully accept his right to change his mind, but as he is a representative of the people he should explain his reasons for his vote. Will his decision in the future be classified as his “Pontius Pilate” moment? After all just because the State Government wanted more information from Council in order to pursue the ban is no reason to give up in my opinion. As the saying goes “ when the going gets tough the tough get going”. The very fact that we are having this discussion regarding extracting water to put in plastic bottles is incomprehensible. Or it is at least to me and to everyone that I speak to in the shire. Public opinion is against this extraction councillors, and as you are merely the voice of the people you should hear their voice and act to ban it as soon as possible. It’s insanity. Anyhow that’s how I see it. How about you? Gwyn Hooper, Uki

Purchase of hospital site could be stalled By Jonathon Howard NEGOTIATIONS COULD have stalled around the purchase of the proposed Tweed Valley Hospital site at the Cudgen plateau, according Relocate Team spokesperson Hayley Paddon. Mrs Paddon said she also remains confident the proposed hospital site at Cudgen will not get underway prior to the March 2019 state government election. “There’s been some stalling on the pricing of the property at Cudgen and while I can’t confirm specifics, I believe the stalling could result in the purchase escalating to legal proceedings,” Mrs Paddon said. Her comments came as the Relocate Team prepare to host a peaceful rally this Friday, August 10, from 10am with a location for the rally yet to be announced. However, Member for Tweed Geoff Provest has reaffirmed that the hospital construction will be underway at Cudgen before Christmas. “I am disappointed with the Relocate Team spreading misinformation,” Mr Provest said. “Tweed needs a new hospital and I remain confident the development will get underway at Cudgen prior to the end of 2018.” The Weekly put several questions to NSW Health Infrastructure regarding securing of the Cudgen farmland site and whether construction will commence in 2018. In response, a spokesperson for Health Infrastructure said negotiations for the purchase of Cudgen farmland for the new Tweed Valley Hospital are

continuing with a construction deadline yet to be determined. The Health Infrastructure spokesperson said they are continuing negotiations with the landowners on the “price for the land”. “If no agreement can be reached, the matter will be referred to the ValuerGeneral for determination,” the spokesperson said. “The negotiation and site acquisition process is being undertaken in accordance with the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991. “Upon finalisation of the Service Statement, construction will commence as soon as the site is acquired, and planning approvals are in place.” Health Infrastructure said early and enabling works are targeted to commence before the end of 2018 and the main construction period will get underway in 2019. “These timeframes will enable the Tweed Valley Hospital to be completed in 2022 and operational in 2023,” the spokesperson said. The comments came as those campaigning against the Cudgen plateau site step up their efforts to have the site shifted to Kings Forest. Labor candidate for Tweed Craig Elliot joined NSW Shadow Minister for Primary Industries, Mick Veitch, to inspect the state significant farmland site at Cudgen on Wednesday, August 8. “These state significant farmlands at Cudgen are under direct threat by Tweed National Party MP Geoff Provest and his Liberal National State Government’s dodgy decision to impose a mega hospital on the doorstep of Kingscliff against community concerns,” Mr Elliot said.

M r Ve i t c h r e i n f o r c e d t h a t Labor is committed to protecting Cudgen farmland and stopping the overdevelopment of the adjoining coastal village of Kingscliff. Meanwhile, during his Budget reply address NSW Labor Leader Luke Foley announced that a NSW Labor Government will build a new public hospital at Kings Forest. Craig Elliot, said he has listened to locals. “If the National Party get their way and impose a hospital in the wrong location it will cause widespread Gold Coast style overdevelopment across Cudgen and Kingscliff,” Mr Elliot said. “I want to see tractors, not bulldozers, on this precious parcel of farmland,” Mr Veitch said. “There is a clear choice at the next election; a vote for Labor’s Craig Elliot is a vote to build a better, faster and on budget new hospital at Kings Forest while protecting local state significant farmland, whereas, a vote for Geoff Provest is a vote for a seven-storey hospital to be imposed on Cudgen along with Gold Coast style traffic gridlock, congestion and high rise overdevelopment.” Mr Elliot said Labor’s responsible position to build at Kings Forest means a new hospital will be delivered for all residents of Tweed “better, faster and on budget”. “Our commitment is to build a new public hospital our community deserves. Labor will build the hospital in the right location, fully funded and on time,” he said. “Only Labor will protect our important Cudgen farmlands and local farming jobs.”

Diptheria case confirmed A RARE case of diphtheria has been confirmed in the Northern Rivers, outside the Tweed Shire, in an adult this week, according to North Coast Public Health Unit. The patient is being treated with antibiotics and all relevant contacts have been followed up in accordance with public health control guidelines. A Public Health Unit spokesperson said diphtheria is a rare condition and there have been no cases of toxigenic diphtheria in the local health district since 2001. “Each year there are several cases of non-toxigenic diphtheria reported, these are usually related to wounds,” Assistant Director North Coast Public Health Unit Greg Bell said. “Diphtheria is a bacterial infection, most often spread in airborne droplets by coughing or sneezing and is treated with antibiotics. “Vaccination protects against the disease and is included on the standard immunisation schedule for children at six weeks, four and six months of age, with boosters at 18 months, four years and in Year Seven.” Mr Bell said symptoms of diphtheria usually begin two to five days after exposure, and include a sore throat, loss of appetite and mild fever. “Within two to three days, a membrane forms over the throat and tonsils that can make it hard to swallow and breathe,” he said. “The infection can also cause swelling in the lymph glands and tissues on both sides of the neck. “The infection can also cause inflammation of heart muscle and nerves, leading to death in five to 10 per cent of cases.” Patients concerned about symptoms should visit their General Practitioner or nearest emergency department.

Man dies after motorbike crash A MAN has died following a two-vehicle crash near Palmers Road, Terragon, on Tuesday, August 7. Tweed Police said it was about 10.20am when emergency services were called to Kyogle Road, near Palmers Road, following reports of crash involving a motorcycle and a truck. Police said the male rider died at the scene and has not been formally identified. The male truck driver was not injured. Their ages are not known at this stage. Officers from Tweed/Byron Police District are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash and a report will be prepared for the Coroner.

By Jonathon Howard DUMPING ON kerbside piles across the Tweed Shire is frustrating residents who are demanding action from Tweed Shire Council. The most recent case of “piggyback dumping” has come from Braeside Drive, Uki, where a resident had started a small kerbside pile and contacted Council for collection. However, the pile quickly grew into a neighbourhood mess that’s now pushed residents to breaking point with calls for the unlawful dumping to cease. Uki resident Libby Francis said she was appalled with the situation at Braeside Drive, where there are now two dumped toilets and a range of other dumped items yet to be cleaned up. “This seems to be happening regularly, as soon as someone puts out theirs (and calls the council) other people start adding to the mess,” she said. While residents can contact Tweed Shire Council for a kerbside collection service twice a year, the rules state a pile cannot exceed two cubic metres and cannot include toxic items or whitegoods. The pile at Braeside Drive had (at the time of print) reached about nine metres by three metres and growing. “It’s disgusting,” Mrs Francis said.

“There’s some real issues with this kerbside clean up. “The Braeside Drive pile has been growing and has been there for at least a month.” Mrs Francis said she would like to see a solution to the issue including faster pick up and even fines to people found dumping on other piles. “There needs to be some action towards those people who don’t want their own kerbside and are simply piggybacking on other people’s piles,” she said. The Weekly spoke with several residents who said they are refusing to use the kerbside dial pickup service through Council in order to avoid people dumping on their pile. “I will never use the service,” one resident, who preferred not to be named, said. “You put anything out the front and someone will dump on top of it, before you know it you’re the new local tip spot and Council cannot collect it all.” The Weekly has sent several questions to Council for comment regarding both Braeside Drive and the effectiveness of the dial up kerbside clean-up program, which will be available in next week’s edition. YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you use the dial up kerbside clean-up service? How do you avoid piggyback dumpers? Send us your thoughts and letters to editor@theweekly.net.au

By Jo Kennett THE FAR North Coast Rural Fire Service has issued a warning after Casuarina residents averted a possible catastrophe when they caught children lighting a fire on Laceflower Parade, in bushland adjoining Cudgen Creek, around 6pm on Friday, August 3. The children were witnessed lighting the fire before they panicked and started to run away, but were caught by a resident who made the boys put the fire out with buckets. Inspector Angela Daly from the Far North Coast Rural Fire Service said that it was a timely reminder that residents need to be prepared for bushfires. “Even though the Tweed Shire generally has higher than average rainfall, at the moment it is drier and hotter than usual for this time of year and poses a serious bushfire threat,” Inspector Daly told The Weekly. “It’s particularly dry along the western side of the shire around Kunghur, Uki and Tyalgum and northern parts of the shire around Bilambil and Murwillumbah but the whole shire is affected so that is contributing to the potential for escaped burns and how quickly fires can escalate. “It’s drier than normal and we expect to see more westerly winds influence the area in the coming weeks and they are generally hotter and drier and dry out vegetation unlike the onshore easterlies which contain more moisture.” Inspector Daly said people needed to make sure they had a bushfire plan to action in case of emergency. “It’s timely that people prepare by checking their bushfire survival plan and check with their family what they will do in the event of fire,” she said. “Bushfires can start easily and spread quickly even in this area.”

Inspector Daly said it was important that residents who want to light a fire find out the requirements for where they live. “They may need to contact their local fire authority - the Rural Fire Service if they are outside major centres or Fire and Rescue NSW if they are within towns like Kingscliff, Tweed Heads or Murwillumbah.” Inspector Daly said residents need to notify local fire authorities at least 24 hours before lighting fires on private property. “They also need to make sure they have water on hand to contain the fire, minimal predicted wind for the duration of the fire and they must remain on the scene to monitor that burn,” she said. “On September 1 the Bush Fire Danger Period (BFDP) will commence and a permit is required for the whole Tweed Shire after that.” Inspector Daly said that people need to be prepared for bushfires all year round. “If people see an unattended fire they need to report it to 000,” she said. “It is cane harvesting season and there are controlled burns, but unattended fires including those on dunes at the beach need to be reported.” Inspector Daly recommended residents download the Bushfire Survival Plan at www. rfs.nsw.gov.au The President of Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers Jan Pilgrim said fires posed a particular threat to the many endangered and threatened species in the Tweed Shire. “We have such fragmented habitat in the Tweed Shire a bushfire can wipe out a lot of habitat and the animals can’t move away, particularly the little mammals like the native rodents, koalas, possums and wallabies,” Ms Pilgrim told The Weekly. “Australia has one of the highest extinction rates of mammal species in the world and we have high biodiversity and increasing population growth leading to severe habitat loss and fragmentation and it does make fires a particular hazard in this area.”

Declutter like a champion

Refugees from the local area, members of the Uki Refugee Project and Council staff spent a day exploring the Tweed, in recognition of the Tweed’s status as a Refugee Welcome Zone.

Council welcomes refugees during 2018 Local Government Week Council recently hosted a welcome and information day for refugees living in the local area in recognition of its status as a Refugee Welcome Zone and in celebration of Local Government Week. Organised in partnership with the Multicultural Families Organisation, the information day took place on Tuesday 31 July and was attended by eight local refugees connected with the support agency Multicultural Families Organisation.

It was an opportunity for the visitors to learn about life in the Tweed and to take part in activities such as a tree planting at Cudgen Creek with staff from the Natural Resources Unit and Dunecare, a tour of the Minjungbal Aboriginal Cultural Centre, and meeting outdoor staff. The visitors were introduced to representatives from the Uki Refugee Project to learn more about local support available in the area.

Fox trapping to protect native fauna on Tweed coast Fox Trapping will take place on Fingal Peninsula and Letitia Spit between 6–20 August. Recent camera monitoring by Tweed Shire Council and Tweed Byron Local Aboriginal Land Council has found that a high number of foxes are using the bushland area of the Tweed Coast. Foxes pose a significant threat to native wildlife and domestic pets and livestock, and are a declared pest under NSW legislation. In a bid to protect our native wildlife in important local bushland areas, a soft-jaw trapping program will be undertaken on Fingal Peninsula and Letitia Spit. It is your responsibility to ensure that you keep your domestic pets out of these areas. If any domestic pets are caught in traps they will be taken to Tweed Shire Council Pound.

A highly experienced specialist contractor has been engaged to undertake these trapping works. The primary purpose of the trapping program is to target foxes prior to the commencement of their breeding season and to reduce the overall fox population at Fingal and Letitica Spit. It is hoped that the trapping program will: • protect the local Bush Stone-curlew population and other ground-nesting birds, particularly protecting eggs and chicks; • reduce fox predation on other threatened species like the Black Bittern; Green Turtles and Common Planigale; and • minimise threats to the Tweed Coast koala population, particularly juvenile and young dispersing koalas.

If clutter is starting to crowd your living spaces then perhaps now is the perfect time to get ready for Second Hand Saturday. Council and North East Waste are once again organising the North Coast’s biggest day of garage sales for Saturday 22 September and registrations are now open. According to the latest Annual Choosi Clutter Report, there is an estimated $60 billion worth of stuff sitting unused in Australian homes with around six cubic metres per household. Coordinator of Second Hand Saturday, Linda Tohver said often the hardest part of planning a garage sale is where to begin. “The report estimates that if we put this clutter into standard packing boxes, it would be enough to create a wall six boxes high around the entire Australian coastline,” she said. The most common types of clutter tend to be general odds and ends followed by clothing and footwear, paper, books/records/CDs, materials for hobbies and interests, appliances and kitchenware and technology products. So what’s the drawcard with Second Hand Saturday? Apart from free advertising of your sale, it’s the biggest garage sale event to involve Tweed, Byron, Ballina, Kyogle, Lismore, Richmond Valley and the Clarence Valley, attracting enthusiastic treasure hunters from all around. For more information or to register, visit secondhandsaturday. com.au, like the mysecondhandsaturday Facebook page or call Tweed Shire Council on (02) 6670 2400.

Gallery celebrates 30th anniversary with dinner Tweed Regional Gallery Foundation Ltd. will host a celebratory dinner in recognition of the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre’s 30th anniversary. The occasion will also launch an ambitious aquisition appeal to mark this milestone. Gallery Director Susi Muddiman OAM said the Foundation was inviting supporters of the Gallery to attend the special dinner to celebrate the realisation of an art gallery for the Tweed and the remarkable achievements of the many people who transformed a dream into reality. The Foundation will also be launching a fundraising appeal at the dinner to help secure the most ambitious acquisition in the Gallery’s history. Valued at $110,000, Hallway with kilims 2017–18 is a magnificent artwork by renowned Australian artist Cressida Campbell. The appeal is off to a tremendous start through a generous pledge by the Foundation of $70,000. Gifts, big or small, will be appreciated with donations of $1,000 or more providing eligibility to become a member of the Foundation. All donations are tax deductible.

Philip Bacon Galleries has generously allowed the Gallery to exhibit the work in their new exhibition Three Decades: celebrating the Tweed Regional Gallery collection on display from Friday 24 August, pending the target of the appeal being reached. Ms Muddiman says one of the most popular ways to support the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre is to become a member of the Foundation. “The Foundation assists the Gallery in developing its collection of works of art and improving the facilities and operations of the Gallery as a legacy for future generations,” she said. The anniversary dinner will be held at the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre on Saturday 25 August 2018. Pre-dinner canapes and drinks served from 5.30pm in the Margaret Olley Art Centre, followed by a three-course dinner in the Gallery Foyer to be catered by Mavis’ Kitchen. Tickets are strictly limited and can be purchased online at www.trybooking.com/WKKQ.

Showcase your home at Open Day

Do you have a sustainable house and want to share your tips with others?

The Sustainable House Day Northern Rivers team will host another Open House Day on Sunday 16 September across the Northern Rivers. If you would like to showcase your home and share your passion and knowledge about sustainable living and what you learned register on the national website at https://sustainablehouseday.com/submit-your-house All participating homes must have a minimum of four sustainable features. This can include anything that contributes to sustainable lifestyles, energy saving and healthy home practices No Tweed Shire homes have yet been showcased in Open House Day – will yours be the first? Sustainable House Day is a national event that has been running for more than a decade and has seen the majority of visitors taking steps to live more sustainably as a result of their experience. Andrew Wadsworth and his partner Meg opened their house for

the second time last year. Jaye Irving, second-prize winner in the 2017 Sustainable House Day Design Competition, designed their hemp house, the first of its kind in our region. Irving and the couple were all in attendance at the house at last year’s open day. Mr Wadsworth estimates they had between 50 to 100 people through their house last year. Besides putting their profile online and working out who would manage which timeslot “there wasn’t much organisation involved,” he said. “It was an easy way to meet people in the community that had similar values around building. “I think that’s the biggest part from the visitor’s perspective is to see the possibilities for real, rather than just looking at a drawing or model. It’s good to touch it and feel it and see what’s possible. “It’s great to share what you’re passionate about with other people and get them inspired. If someone values sustainability and wants to live that way sharing what you do and what you’ve done is the best way to continue to grow that interest,” he said.

Community members of all ages enjoyed getting their hands dirty to help the environment.

This young fellow probably needed a bit of hand with this massive mulch load!

The week that was ... Most people know that councils are responsible for rates, roads and rubbish but did you know Tweed Shire Council provides more than 50 community services? Local Government Week 2018 is the perfect opportunity to promote the breath and diversity of work that Council does across the Tweed. As part of the week more than 60 volunteers took part in a planting event on the bank of Duroby Creek. With residents, Tweed Landcare and companies such as Stone & Wood and Flyin’ Fox Ice Blox pitching in more than 1,000 trees, shrubs and groundcovers were planted during the event on Sunday 29 July. There’s a future event on 25 August at Byangum so stay tuned for details. Other events which took place during Local Government Week included the Love Pets Love Wildlife family fun day, talks on energy efficiency, a tour of the recycling facility at Chinderah and an open day at Clarrie Hall Day.

Chinderah approval Council has approved a concept development application for a staged mixed use development for a pub, restaurant, cafe, retail premises, commercial remises, community facilities, medical centre, indoor recreation facility and markets on Chinderah Bay Drive at Chinderah. The development consent is limited to the works identified as being part of stage 1 – vehicle access to Chinderah Bay Drive. All other works associated with the concept plan require assessment and approval through further development applications with Council. In addition, Council will invite the proponent, residents (via Australia Post), businesses and where possible, absentee property owners of Chinderah, to a round table meeting to allow Council to gain a better understanding of the concerns arising from this development and to allow those supporting it to express their views. Appropriate planning/engineering staff will be in attendance to provide professional advice as required. For more information on this application, see www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/CouncilMeetings for the Council Meeting Agenda and Minutes of 19 July 2018 and also the Council Meeting Agenda for 2 August 2018.

On exhibition – Draft Events Sponsorship Policy On 19 July 2018, Council resolved to publicly exhibit the Draft Events Sponsorship Policy for a period of 28 days, with receipt of submissions accepted for 42 days from the commencement date of exhibition. Two years on from implementation, and following the assessment and awarding of three rounds of funding, the Events Sponsorship Policy has recently been reviewed to recognise long-standing community events, or events based on a hobby activity which are linked to a strong sense of place, belonging and resident satisfaction. There may be commercial elements to the activity, but the events are more focused on honoring the personality of the region and desires of the community than attracting external visitation or driving economic outcomes. As a result, the Community Event definition has been updated, along with the event growth potential for a community event. The guiding principle for ‘Sustainability’ has also been updated to provide an opportunity for event organisers to introduce ‘innovative’ practices that minimise the impact on the local environment. The Draft Policy is available on Council’s website www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ OnExhibition. Public submissions can be made via email to tsc@tweed.nsw.gov.au or in writing and addressed to:

Call to increase services at local courts and

By Jonathon Howard THE NUMBER of local court hearings has significantly increased at both Murwillumbah Local Court and Tweed Heads Local Court in the past five years, according to the latest Bureau of Crime Statistics, despite cuts to the Murwillumbah Local Court in 2015. The figures paint a dramatic image of the increasing workload placed on the shire’s local court systems with calls from local lawyers to increase sitting days. The figures also prompted several local lawyers and Labor candidate for Lismore Janelle Saffin to host a small meeting outside the Murwillumbah Local Court on Wednesday, August 1, to highlight the need to strengthen local courts for the future. The meeting also raised the prospect of upgrading the Tweed Heads Local Court to include a District Court to accommodate major crime hearings and to ease an increasing number of district court hearings at Lismore. The meeting was also staged in fear of future cuts to frontline services in the Tweed Shire, which several local solicitors said they are “extremely concerned about”. The Weekly spoke with Member for Lismore Thomas George who sought to reassure residents that further cuts would not occur at the Murwillumbah Local Court. “I am sick of the Labor Party trying to scare residents about the Murwillumbah Local Court,” he said. “Murwillumbah Court House will remain open and will not close, and that’s that.” Member for Tweed Geoff Provest also sought to reassure residents that the Tweed Heads Local Court was here to stay. “There are no changes to the Tweed Heads Local Court and I would encourage Janelle to produce evidence to the contrary,” he said.

Mr Provest acknowledged that the Tweed Heads Local Court was seeing significant increases in cases and said there was a need to plan for the future. “I think there is a need to develop a plan to invest in the future of the Tweed Heads Local Court as we have already made significant investments in health, police, ambulance and schools, it makes sense to the put the courts next,” she said. Local lawyers from Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads were invited by Mrs Saffin to discuss issues surrounding the delivery of justice following cuts to Murwillumbah Court in 2015. Murwillumbah Court hearings have steadily increased from a total of 252 hearings in 2012, to 327 in 2017, according to the Bureau of Crime Statistics, despite having the number of hearing days halved in 2015. This represents a 30 per cent increase in hearings at Murwillumbah Local Court in the past five years. Meanwhile, Tweed Heads Local Court has experienced a dramatic increase in hearings throughout the past five years rising from 1,081 hearings in 2012 to 1,603 hearings in 2017, or an increase of 48 per cent. It should also be noted that of those court hearings, between 92 and 96 per cent of cases were found guilty at the Tweed Heads Local Court. Murwillumbah Local Court also achieved a high rate of convictions and of the cases heard, achieved between 90 to 96 per cent guilty verdicts. “I have been in Murwillumbah numerous times over the past few months and local residents are telling me that Murwillumbah is suffering from cuts to frontline services,” Mrs Saffin said. “Under the National Party, Murwillumbah has seen cuts to the hospital, cuts to the firearms registry, cuts to police, blown out

maintenance backlogs in local schools, cuts to the Women’s Service resulting in its closure and cuts to the local Court House. “Murwillumbah is suffering death by a thousand cuts. “As a Solicitor I understand how important legal services are to any community. Justice delayed is Justice denied. “Local advocates made enough noise at the time to prevent the complete closure by the government of the Murwillumbah Court House and were left with drastically reduced services. “There can be no justification for what they are doing in Murwillumbah. “Of all places in NSW, the future of Murwillumbah should be one of expansion of services, not reduction, not slashing.” Carl Edwards Solicitors Law Clerk Alina Rylko said the “choked up NSW Justice system is being exploited at its most vulnerable point”.

“In the small country town so far from Sydney no one expects it to pipe up,” she said. “Tweed’s legal community is frustratingly aware both Murwillumbah and Tweed Court Houses both have been brutally undercut. “There’s no reason why these courts don’t deserve their fair share of resources from Sydney. “Without equitable access to the justice system it is not only the most disadvantaged members of our community that suffer. “It’s also the domestic violence victim, waiting for her AVO to finalise, the small business owner using the civil court, and the family struggling through a marriage breakdown. “We’re calling for transparency and proactivity by the NSW Government, to prove how cut backs are justified and bring back services where it’s fair.” Peter O’Donnell, Solicitor and Murwillumbah Duty Solicitor Coordinator

Fox trapping program at Fingal Head, 6 – 20 August 2018 Tweed Shire Council (Council) is working with the Tweed Byron Local Aboriginal Land Council (TBLALC) to undertake a fox trapping program on TBLALC land on the Fingal Peninsula. Foxes have been frequently recorded on the Fingal Peninsula and they pose a serious threat to native fauna. The fox trapping program is a joint conservation initiative which aims to remove foxes to benefit local threatened fauna like the Bush Stonecurlew, Beach Stone-curlew and Green and Loggerhead Turtles. Fox trapping (using soft-jaw traps) will begin in the hatched areas of the map shown, on 6 August 2018 and will continue until 20 August 2018 or until the foxes have been removed. It is your responsibility to ensure that you keep your domestic pets out of the trapping. If any domestic pets are caught in traps they will be taken to Tweed Shire Council Pound. Trapping is being undertaken on private land only with tracks leading into trapping areas signposted to alert members of the public to the trapping program. If you would like any further information on the fox trapping program please contact Tweed Shire Council on (02) 6670 2400.

for district court for Legal Aid NSW, was unable to attend the meeting, but said the delays were having a ripple effect on the provision of legal services at Muwillumbah Local Court. “After extensive lobbying by local legal practitioners we received a number of Hearing Days outside of the two List Days per month,” he said. “This appears to have reduced Hearing Days from 6-8 months to around 3-4 months. “However, given that one must consider the availability of police and other witnesses, especially expert witnesses, Hearing Days scheduling can quickly blow out to 6 months. “Another problem appears to be what happens if a defendant does not show up to Court when supposed to. “Usually, a Warrant issues for nonattendance and the matter is dealt with at a future date. “This is not a new procedure but certainly has a ripple effect at Murwillumbah because it simply adds the matter to a future List Day, thereby creating duplication and further delays down the line. “We asked Mr George MP to consider running a tech pilot at Murwillumbah to assist the provision of legal service delivery

utilising an increased List Capacity to cover any shortfall in List Day blowouts in the future. “We were advised that Mr George would look into such a pilot but are still waiting.” Shadow Attorney General Paul Lynch said he would certainly be open to hearing an argument for a District Court at Tweed Heads. “The main priority should be to reduce the unacceptable waiting times allowed to blow out by the current Government,” Mr Lynch said. “This is consistent with the Government’s downgrading of frontline services in regional areas. “One way of dealing with the backlog might be to hold District Court sittings in Tweed. “I should add that this wouldn’t replace the Local Court which should continue in any event. “The District and Local Courts do very different things and even with the District Court sitting you’d also have a Local Court.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Do you believe there is a need to increase staff and support for our local courts?

Power up for Summer with the Best New Tek in Solar advertisement

Get More Energy with

Free 25 year Inverter Warranty Upgrade Extended!

Until the end of August 2018, 888 Solar Tek will provide a 25 year warranty upgrade to each New SolarEdge system ordered for FREE!

Power Prices Went Up 26% in July - Again! The Solar Feed In Tariff has been cut by an average of 3c per kWh and power has gone up 3c per kWh. If you add these together this is a 26% increase in power prices for solar households.

Every July the Electricity Networks adjust retail pricing for the next year. Despite Government spin about lowering prices, the evidence on your power bill is the opposite. Some retailers are lowering the rate of power and then hiking the daily supply charge, claiming to have lowered prices! Others have kept the solar FIT high and whacked bigger increases in power and supply charge on customers. Are you tired of the constant deception about your power bills as every retailer creates a different spin on the same news - higher prices? The bottom line is they all buy power from the same place and get it through the same wires. The illusion of competition is a sideshow. What’s really happening is a lot of talk, while gas, coal and oil corporations rip us off with support from the Government!

Solar is the Best Way to Save Money on Power

The good news is the value of solar energy you use yourself just went up. Investment in solar power has a return rate of 25-35% p.a.! Compare that to investment in shares, property or super! Once your solar system has paid for itself in 3-4 years, it will continue to make free power for years to come.

ACCC Recommends Solar Rebate be Axed in 2 Years

The Government wants to get rid of incentives for rooftop solar. The ACCC report they commissioned has threatened to phase out the solar rebate in two years instead of 13. Our average customer saves $4,104 on the price of a new solar system now and any move to axe the rebate will put prices up by 50%. If you are thinking about getting solar, you had better move now while rebates are still in place.

SolarEdge optimizers ensure every panel operates separately to prevent energy loss to whole strings of panels when one is shaded or soiled. SolarEdge is the best inverter technology available. It can produce up to 25% more power than normal string inverters. With 25 year warranties Solar Edge is competively priced but offers significant life time savings.

Councillors knock back rural land-sharing community raised including traffic, amenity, stormwater and erosion impacts. The applicant had initially asked for 27 sites which raised “significant concerns” with Council planning staff, including vegetation loss and earthworks, and was later reduced to 13 sites. In their assessment of the development, Council officers said the revised application had addressed the majority of their concerns and recommended deferred conditional approval of the development, meaning Council would continue to work with the developer to satisfy their concerns, especially in relation to bushfire protection. “This significant reduction in the number of dwellings is considered to alleviate many of the concerns raised within the submissions received during the public advertising period,” Council’s report reads. The motion to refuse the application was raised by Mayor Katie Milne and seconded by Cr Chris Cherry, with votes for coming from Cr Ron Cooper and Cr Reece Byrnes. Among the reasons for refusing the land sharing community included being inconsistent with the recently adopted Draft Tweed Rural Land Strategy which aims to protect rural land as well as the North Coast Regional Plan which focuses “growth in cities and centres to protect the sensitive coastal strip, productive farmland and land with significant environmental and cultural values”. But Council staff said the application addresses several aspects of the North Coast Regional Plan

including great housing choices and lifestyle options, enhancing biodiversity and protecting agricultural land, as well as a key action of the Draft Rural Land Strategy which calls for investigation into rural land-sharing and multiple occupancy opportunities. Other reasons for refusing the development included not providing enough detail and not being in the public interest.

Chinderah Tavern green light

A motion to reverse the approval of the major $7.275 Chinderah Village development so the community can be further consulted was lost with votes against coming from Cr Reece Byrnes, Cr James Owen, Cr Warren Polglase and Cr Pryce Allsop. But a motion raised by Cr Ron Cooper to conduct a round-table community meeting was won with votes for coming from Cr Byrnes, Cr Cooper, Cr Chris Cherry and Mayor Katie Milne. Council will invite the applicant, residents and business to a meeting that will provide Council with further information about their concerns with the development.

Halcyon House refused

Councillors unanimously knocked back a request to rezone the Halcyon House site at Cabarita from residential to business, which would have allowed for further development of the site, including a new building of 14 units, a restaurant, gym and parking. The applicant now has 14 days to change their application to include public use of their Paper Daisy restaurant and a car park or

Council’s solicitors will undertake action for not complying with their development consent which prevents the public from dining at the hotel’s restaurant. If submitted, the application would be decided by the NSW Department of Planning and Environment.

Sleepy Hollow depot shutdown

Council will shut down a truck depot and office that has been operating without approval at 606 Pottsville Road, Sleepy Hollow. An application to use the site for a depot was knocked back at Council’s November 2017 meeting because the land is zoned rural, issues with vehicle access and sight distance, and environmental and amenity impacts. T h e s i t e ’s ow n e r ap p e a l e d Council’s decision in the Land and Environment Court, but the appeal was thrown out by Commissioner Dixon who said the application remained “inadequate” despite multiple adjournments to give the owner time to address deficiencies. These deficiencies included lack of a noise assessment report, failure to address the Tweed Coast Comprehensive Koala Plan of Management, an adequate landscape plan, lighting details and wastewater management plans.

I’m a celebrity fined

Councillors voted to fine the company behind I’m a Celebrity Get Me out of Here $6,000 for breaching the number of vehicles permitted to access their Dungay Creek Road site. A $6,000 fine was issued in February this year for breaching their conditions five times in December 2017 and the production

company, Granada, self-reported another six breaches that occurred in January this year. Their approval allows for 80 vehicle trips a day but the production company told Council there is “no practicable means” for them to comply with the limit as their initial estimates did not include supplier deliveries. It was recommended by Council staff to issue a single fine to the production company and to work with them to review traffic management, which could include increasing the permitted number of vehicle movements per day. However, Mayor Milne and Cr Cherry proposed allowing increased traffic for a three-week filming window for each production, but the amendment was lost with Cr Byrnes, Cr Owen, Cr Polglase and Cr Allsop voting against it.

1110 Urliup Road agreement

Council has entered into an agreement with the owner of 1110 Urliup Road where alleged unauthorised works had occurred at an approved tourist accommodation known as Wychwood Forest Escape. Council began investigating the site in 2017 after receiving complaints of unauthorised roadworks, vegetation clearing, structures and waterway pollution. The details of the agreement are unknown at this stage due to confidentially and Council said they will provide information of the action taken to the residents who raised concerns.

AN APPLICATION to develop a new land sharing community at 54 Wallum Court, Clothiers Creek, has been refused by Tweed Shire councillors, despite a staff recommendation to approve it at last Thursday’s Planning Meeting. The $1.1 million staged development, known as Coolamon, proposed establishing 13 homes on 102 hectares of rural land that currently contains Bugler’s Quarry. The quarry was planned to cease operation once the development was approved and the applicant proposed protecting wildlife corridors, managing sensitive vegetation and restoring habitat as well as maintaining grazing lands located on the property. The applicant will not have any right to appeal Council’s refusal because legislation that allowed for land sharing communities was abolished on Monday, August 6. “ I t i s C o u n c i l ’s c u r r e n t interpretation that because the Integration and Repeals State Environmental Planning Policy ends today (August 6) with no savings provisions for development applications made prior to today there are no other existing provisions that allow rural sharing development which means the NSW Land Environment Court would have no standing to approve such an application on appeal,” the Council spokesperson said. “The applicant could test this interpretation by obtaining legal advice if they wished.” A total of 17 submissions, all objecting to the development, were submitted to Council with concerns

"The tumours have continued to grow at a rapid rate making it hard for me to breathe at times. "This is making me panic. I wanted to travel places and tick things off my bucket list but it’s becoming too difficult and my time is running out. I’m heartbroken. Six days later, at 2.17pm, August 2, came the news the community had been dreading, with a post from her father Gary announcing Caitlin’s passing. “It is with a broken heart that we make this post," he wrote. "Last night at 11pm our beautiful brave girl passed away and is finally at peace. "Caitlin was surrounded by her family and friends just as she requested. "She has been such an inspiration to all that knew her and we will miss her more than any words can express. "Our whole family has been overwhelmed by the enormous amount of love, support and generosity shown by everyone and we can’t thank you enough. "We don't know how our life will ever be the same. "Until we meet again our brave warrior Gary, Mellissa, Dale and Tia." "As you can imagine we are absolutely heartbroken and currently on an emotional roller coaster,” Gary Ambrose told The Weekly later. "But saying that we couldn’t be any prouder of Caitlin. "It didn’t matter how sick or how much this horrible disease took from her, she always managed to have a huge smile on her face, and the strength and positiveness she showed throughout this battle was amazing.

"Because you never know when the things you love can be taken away from you.” Caitlin’s funeral will be held on Friday, August 10, 2018 at 10am at Melaleuca Station Memorial Gardens, Chinderah. “True to Caitlin’s positive attitude she wished that her send-off be a celebration of her life and didn’t want anyone to feel sad for her passing, and that it not be necessary to wear black to her service,” her father said.

THE TWEED Shire community has been left devastated by the news that Ewing Sarcoma sufferer Caitlin Ambrose tragically passed away on Thursday, August 2. The story of Caitlin’s journey captured the hearts of residents across the shire, with many people assisting in fundraising events to help send Caitlin to the United States for a cancer trial after treatment in Australia failed. Sadly, the treatment in Houston, Texas, also failed and despite her positive attitude and brave smile, the cancers continued to grow, devastating Caitlin, her family and the community who had been praying for her recovery. Caitlin made a bucket list and started ticking her dream wish list off, that included seeing the Great Barrier Reef from a helicopter and meeting Ed Sheeran, but the pain was hard to escape. She went into hospital to get radiation treatment to help control the pain on her return from the US. Caitlin kept the community informed through her Caitlin Kicks Cancer website, a frank account of the highs and lows, showing her swimming with dolphins, hotair ballooning, camping and having fun with friends and families but also detailing the treatment and pain she was enduring. A group of Cabarita children lifted Caitlin’s spirits by being there to cheer her up and raising almost $1,000 because they “really wanted to help her and her family”. Robin Blewer, the mother of two of the children, spoke recently of how hard it was to have to talk to the children about Caitlin’s prognosis, but how proud they all were of them. “Caitlin and her family are an example to all of us, including our children, of how to face what is arguably the very worst that life can throw at us, with grace and courage,” she wrote. “Their bravery and honesty, especially Caitlin’s, in sharing her story, and their gratitude towards our kids in turn teaches our kids the value of helping without any expectation of reward or recognition. “It teaches them that helping and bringing joy to someone as inspirational as Caitlin, is in and of itself, reward enough.” On July 27 Caitlin wrote her last post. “The last few days have been rough," she wrote.

FROM 12PM

POLICE HAVE charged four young people, all from Queensland, after a stolen car was crashed and burnt-out at Clothiers Creek around 1am on Monday, August 6. Three teens aged 15 and a man aged 18 were travelling in a stolen Ford Falcon station wagon when it crashed on a roundabout at the intersection of Clothiers Creek Road and the Pacific Highway. Witness Tammy Williams said she and her partner were still awake when they heard the vehicle racing over the bridge. “They came flying around the roundabout (on the west side of the bridge) and then we heard a big bang and thought, here we go again,” Ms Williams told The Weekly. “We looked out and saw them walking away and the car on fire behind them and then they walked towards our house and one of the girls - she was very young, about 15 - walked up the driveway and tried the door of one of our cars but it was locked. “She wandered back to the others and we turned the lights on and my partner started going down there and then they walked back to the car and one of them jumped on the bonnet and kicked in the windscreen.” Ms Williams said they weren’t in any rush and didn’t seem to care about being caught. “I called the cops twice but it took 40 minutes for them to get there,” she said. “The car had blown up and the trees had caught fire - the fire brigade got there before the police and put the blaze out. “When the police arrived he had picked the kids up on the motorway and they were in the back of car.” Ms Williams said police had reviewed their CCTV footage of the incident after taking statements. “It’s the second time the police have used our footage,” Ms Williams said. “The other time they were in a high-speed chase and the guy had crashed and ran up the off-ramp, then they lost him and they looked at our footage and saw he had escaped in another car with an associate who Murwillumbah police were able to apprehend because you could see the number plate.” Ms Williams said it was a common occurrence in the area.

“It happens all the time,” she said. “Cars are dumped on the side of road with all the wheels gone. “When we moved here three years ago things were getting stolen all the time, so we put CCTV cameras up and that has stopped it, but now they hit the east side of the overpass where everyone parks their cars. “There are lots of cars parked there during the day, tradies get lifts to work, but it’s quite busy and safe, but it’s not safe at night so you wouldn’t want to leave a car there.” Ms Williams said she felt safe but wondered what the children were doing running around stealing cars at night. “We have dogs and cameras and a fence so we feel reasonably safe but they seem to be getting away with it, so the police are obviously struggling to get convictions, maybe because they are often young kids,” she said. “You think, what is going on with these kids? They don’t seem to have any respect for other people’s properties and you wonder where the parents are and how they could let them just run around. “You read about a lot on social media community pages and we see it all the time.” Tweed Heads Police said they arrested the four and took them to Tweed Heads Police Station where officers searched them and allegedly located numerous items of stolen property including sunglasses, coins, a mobile phone and clothing. The 18-year-old man and two male juveniles were charged with being in a stolen vehicle, possessing stolen goods and damaging property by fire. They were granted bail to appear in court on Monday, August 27. The adult will appear in Tweed Heads Local Court and the juveniles will appear in a children’s court. The 15-year-old female was charged with motor vehicle theft, being an unlicensed driver, negligent driving, possessing stolen goods and damaging property by fire. She was given conditional bail and will also appear in a children’s court. Tweed Byron LAC police Chief Inspector Gary Cowan told The Weekly that police were doing extra patrols in the area to combat a recent crime spate. “If people notice a car sitting in one place that may be abandoned they should contact police and then we can see if its stolen,” he said.

TWEED POLICE have charged a 53-yearold Murwillumbah man after he produced a knife attached to a pole and threatened officers on Sunday, August 5. Police said it was about 11.15pm when they were called to Dorset Street in Murwillumbah, following reports a man was yelling in the street and throwing items. Officers from Tweed/Byron Police District will allege the man was armed with a pole with a knife attached to it.

“He allegedly threatened police with the weapon before he was arrested,” police said. “No one was injured.” The man taken to Tweed Heads Police Station where he was charged with being armed with intent to commit an indictable offence. The man was refused bail and appeared before Tweed Heads Local Court on Monday, August 6, where he was refused bail to appear at Murwillumbah Local Court on Tuesday, September 25.

National Integrity Commission, to restore faith in the federal system. “Locals are telling me that this government has got its priorities wrong spending billions of dollars in tax cuts for the top end of town, whilst local families and pensioners are doing it tough,” she said. “I will always stand up for the issues that are important to locals.” Mrs Saffin, who is the Labor candidate for the seat of Lismore, joined Mrs Elliot and echoed her concerns around a reduction in local frontline services. “Yesterday I was fortunate to meet with the dedicated team from Wedgetail Retreat and Tweed Palliative Support to gain an even better understanding of the important work they do for our community,” she said. “Today (Wednesday, August 1) I have appreciated the opportunity to speak with local residents who are fed up with the National Party cutting frontline services in Murwillumbah. “From the hospital to police and the women’s service, the Court House and the Firearms Registry.” During the pop-up shop, Mrs Saffin said locals were “fed up” with their services being slashed. “I have taken away a range of concerns to look into further such as the impact on local electrical contractors of the government’s changes to advanced metering, the reduction in local court services, and the need to keep our rail corridor in public hands,” she said. “I will be speaking to my colleagues on these matters as a matter of priority.” Mrs Saffin said many Tweed Valley locals said they have ongoing concerns with the future of the Murwillumbah Hospital. “Of concern to many residents was the future of Murwillumbah Hospital when the new Tweed Valley Hospital is built,” she said. “I will be calling on the National Party to give a guarantee about the future of our hospital.”

THERE WERE many hot topics raised with Federal Member for Richmond Justine Elliot at her mobile office setup in Murwillumbah near the New Leaf Café on Wednesday, August 1. Mrs Elliot said the Murwillumbah mobile office was “well attended” with dozens of locals from Murwillumbah and surrounding communities visiting to raise issues with both Justine and with Janelle Saffin, Labor’s candidate for the state electorate of Lismore, which incorporates Murwillumbah. Mrs Elliot said she holds mobile offices across the electorate on a regular basis in order to hear from Tweed locals about their concerns and views. “A range of State and Federal issues were raised on the day including Malcolm Turnbull’s cuts to the energy supplement for pensioners, cuts to the ABC, the need to assist drought affected farmers, and a need for carer to patient ratios in aged care,” she said. “ O f p a r t i c u l a r c o n c e r n we r e t h e Government’s wrong priorities with most Tweed Valley locals raising the issue of the Federal Government’s $17 billion handout in tax cuts to the big banks and the State Government spending billions on building stadiums in Sydney whilst services in Murwillumbah have been slashed.” Mrs Elliot said it was wonderful to have the pop-up shop in Murwillumbah to hear firsthand about the issues that are impacting local lives. “It was great to see the Drought Angels and discuss all the work they are doing to assist Australian farmers who are struggling,” she said. “The issue of penalty rates was raised by a former chef who provided insight into the difficulties that hospitality workers are now facing. “Labor believes that penalty rates should be protected.” Mrs Elliot said there had also been a positive response to Labor’s plans to implement a

Feeling Dizzy?

You could have a balance or vestibular disorder

BALANCE is easily taken for granted. However when the fragile vestibular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony. Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. (Silva, 2014). Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

1. Soak your feet. The skin on the soles of your feet is tough. Soak them in water for at least five minutes and remove any dead skin. If your feet are extra dry or cracked, you can add an oil when soaking. 2. Exfoliate. You can use an exfoliator scrub to soften your soles and reduce calluses, or you can make your own. Combine sea salt, an oil (peppermint, olive, lavender) and a touch of water then massage all over your feet. You can use brown sugar and oats in the scrub as well. Rinse after a few minutes. 3. Smooth with a pumice stone. After rinsing away your scrub, follow it by gently exfoliating your soles with a pumice stone for rough calluses. 4. Moisturize. Don’t forget to moisturize your feet after a shower. Use a foot cream

after using the pumice stone, after a shower, and before going to bed to soften your soles and wear socks to bed to lock in moisture.

Free your life, live your dreams

THE MACE Energy Method “assists people to take control of their lives and live their own dreams”, no longer affected by unwanted feelings, they can get on with life. The body of knowledge behind this new method is the result of many years of research and refinement, named CAUSISMtm. This method has the client deal only with the actual cause of any type of problem, quickly, without the client having to relive or talk about any embarrassing, traumatic experience or their private/personal business. This research and experience has concluded that just talking about life’s problems has no permanent therapeutic effect and can even make a client feel worse. It’s not what has happened to us (the story) that is important,

only the negative feelings we still carry unknowingly as a result of the old upsets. When the old upsets are addressed properly with this new method we are set free to be our true selves, enjoying our lives unhindered. An added bonus many clients have reported is the disappearance of long term physical/ body ailments or problems. It has been found that every negative feeling is holding some of your precious energy and potential captive in negativity. When this negativity is deleted your captive energy is released to you as positive energy. The result is your true self which has been a life changing experience for many people using the Mace Energy Method. Most often this is achieved in one or two face to face sessions and appointments can also be carried out over Skype or phone.

In many cases, these disruptions to a person’s overall function can go on for months or even years without symptoms. Chiropractors are thoroughly trained in detecting any loss of function of the nervous system and restore it. “We focus on how a person ‘functions’ rather than how they ‘feel’,” Dr Brian said. “Symptoms are often the last thing to show, and the first to go. So our real goal is to ensure every patient we see achieves optimal function of every part of their body and brain.” Dr Brian runs monthly posture classes where he discusses the importance of spinal health and posture and talks about easy and effective ways you can work on your posture at home. The next class is set to be held on Wednesday, August 22 at 6pm. You can contact the office to reserve your seat! It’s a great time to learn more about what chiropractic has to offer and ask questions to determine if it’s right for you. Dr Brian also offers complimentary spinal health checks, a 10-minute assessment where he can check your spine and posture and determine if chiropractic care could help you achieve your health goals. Contact the practice today if you’d like to learn more!

Dr Brian Johnson (Chiropractor).

A man on a mission is how one might describe Dr Brian Johnson (Chiropractor). With more than 14 years of Chiropractic experience and a keen passion for helping people improve their quality of life, Dr Brian joins Total Lifestyle Chiropractic in Murwillumbah with hopes of transforming the community. “My mission and hope is to help the community shift their understanding of what health truly is and how Chiropractic, nutrition and exercise can really transform a life and even an entire family,” he said. “Ultimately, our health is our greatest asset – we only get one body, one spine, one brain and how we care for it will determine how fully we are able to live and enjoy life.” For more than 100 years, chiropractic has been based on the scientiﬁc fact that the nervous system controls the function of every tissue, organ, and system of your body making it a major key to health and wellbeing. While the brain is protected by the skull, the spinal cord is more vulnerable, surrounded by 24 moving vertebrae. When the bones in the spine become misaligned, they can irritate the nervous system and this disrupts the function of the tissues or organs under control of the nervous system.

End of an era for Gary Whittle Auto FOR THE past 32 years Gary Whittle has poured his heart and soul into his mechanical repair workshop at 2/48 Prospero Street, South Murwillumbah, where he’s become a familiar face to many local families. Gary has also continued a Whittle family tradition of hard work and a passionate approach to Tweed Valley life that dates back more than 120 years. But following a heart attack in February this year and a need to concentrate on his health, Gary along with his wife Eileen, who also plays a strong role in the business, have decided to announce their retirement. The couple have sold the business to Kurt Buchanan and his wife Rachel, who bring a fresh approach while retaining Gary’s hard work ethic and commitment to local families. Gary and Eileen both said they would miss Murwillumbah dearly, but have decided to make a move to Evans Head where they can enjoy a change of pace, while making frequent visits to Murwillumbah. The business has already changed hands as well as the name from Gary Whittle Auto to Buchanan Motors, but the vision of quality service remains. The Weekly recently caught up with Gary and Kurt to find out more about the transition as well as Kurt’s vision for the business. Kurt, 33, brings an experience base spanning 17 years as a full-time mechanic and business owner. As with the Whittle family, the Buchanan family has a strong local presence in the Tweed Shire dating back three generations. Kurt has already made some initial changes to the business including new equipment and updating technology. “We’re continuing a lot of the hard work and family business ethics that Gary had in place, but we’re also moving

Kurt and Rachel Buchanan with Eileen and Gary Whittle

into the 21st century with new hoists and diagnostic computers that enable us to work on more modern vehicles,” he said. Kurt said he also has a new mechanic starting in the next three weeks alongside his current lead mechanic Michael Shackle. Kurt’s wife Rachel will take on the role of administration and customer service, which takes over from Eileen Whittle. Eileen has been working with her husband Gary for the past 28 years and said it was time for a change. “It’s going to be hard to leave the place,” she said. “But we know the business is in good hands and we intend on making regular visits, but it’s really time to focus on Gary’s health and make a change in life.” Gary said he was feeling the nerves that come with big change, but he knew it was time. “It was probably time to change three or more years ago, but sometimes these things are forced on us with the health issues,” he said.

“I think the business is in great hands with Kurt and Rachel, who have a great approach to their work and will look after their customers as Eileen and I did.” Gary said he still remembers his first job at the young age of 16 polishing a car for Ebbott & Fenner Holden. “It was in this same workshop 50 years ago that I washed and polished a white HR Holden sedan,” he said. “There’s a lot of memories in this place, but the time is right for change.” Gary had only a few job roles before entering his own business including working for Ebbott & Fenner Holden, the new Holden dealer, Bernie Quinn at Datsun and then started Gary Whittle Auto on November 1, 1986. Gary will remain on at Buchanan Motors for the next month during the handover. To find out more about Buchanan Motors visit 2/48 Prospero Street or phone (02) 6672 4500.

Ladies in League raise funds LADIES IN League raised $8,100 for Wedgetail Retreat at a luncheon at the Tweed River Jockey Club on Friday, August 3. Event coordinator at Murwillumbah Colts Junior Rugby League Club, Prue Pucheu, said it was a great event. “All the players from Group 18 from Tugun to Lennox Head got together and this time we hosted and got to choose the charity,” Mrs Pucheu said. “We had 115 ladies at the jockey club, who paid for tables and then we had raffles with a lot of fantastic donations from local businesses. “We had six major holiday prizes to raffle including five days in Bali so that was great.” Mrs Pucheu said they had a great line-up to keep the ladies entertained as well. “MC Mark Forbes was amazing and we had a couple of entertainers and Bronte Eve playing live music and she is just fantastic,” she said. Mrs Pucheu said the event wouldn’t have been possible without the support of key sponsors. “Hardings Earthmoving, Crystal Conveyancing, Matts Painting & Decorating and the Tweed Valley Weekly all contributed,” she said. “We also had prizes and services donated by Tweed Coast Hire, Balloonery, Tweed Valley Events and Flowerista was also fantastic, donating all the centrepieces at tables. “It was a really great event and all the ladies had a lot of fun for a wonderful cause.”

Angel in the air for Rescue Day THE WESTPAC Life Saver Rescue Helicopter team have this week revealed one of the incredible rescue stories that took place at Chillingham on Christmas Day in 2017 in the lead up to Rescue Day on Friday, August 10. Rescue Day is about celebrating the vital role that the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter Service plays in responding to emergencies across Northern NSW including the Tweed Shire. The story of Chillingham local Savanah Aspery (pictured), who on Christmas Day in 2017 endured a frightening turn of events, is just one example of how important a role the Rescue Helicopter plays in communities. The Aspery family had built a flying fox from a large tree and over the families’ dam for them to splashdown during the Christmas Day fun. However, Savanah lost her grip on the flying fox at a height of about two storeys and sustained serious injuries that would require surgery. Savanah quickly lost colour and tone in her skin and was bleeding and struggling to remain conscious as she lay on the ground following the fall. The family dialed triple zero (000) and within a matter of minutes the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter was in the air and on route to her aid. Savanah was flown to the Gold Coast University Hospital for surgical treatment with injuries to her face, jaw and internal trauma. She has since made a full recovery and is now one of more than 9,200 people since 1982 to become a patient of the Rescue Helicopter with her incredible story being highlighted as part of the services’ annual Rescue Day appeal. Regional Marketing Manager for the Service, Zeke Huish said each year the

service becomes part of the family story for hundreds of people across our region. “Rescue Day is our one day of the year where we highlight our role in helping to save countless lives and the impact this has on local families and their community,” he said. “Rescue Day will see businesses, community groups, daycare centres and schools lending their support to raise funds and keep the service free of charge to the patients we transport.” “Importantly, all donation support received on Rescue Day in our region, stays in our region, to directly benefit the service based in Lismore.” To find out more about the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter or to make a donation during Rescue Day visit www. helirescue.com.au/ or phone 1800 155 155.

Bev’s on Main changes ownership

MUCH-LOVED local retailer Beverley Hill has announced her retirement after 25 years of providing outstanding service with a smile at Beverley’s On Main Street in Murwillumbah. Bev announced the sale of the business to longstanding local lady Melissa Bell, who is keen to continue Bev’s legacy of providing locals with their fashion needs. “Mel is a perfect fit for the store,” Bev said. “While I’m a little reluctant to leave, I know the shop and customers are in good hands and feel confident it will go from strength to strength with Mel.” This business, formally known as Suzanne Fashion Salon, commenced operation more than 74 years ago in 1944. “It was first registered in 1958 to Mrs Pond and has operated continuously in Murwillumbah for 74 years,” Bev said. Bev bought the business, where it currently exists, from Mrs Hawker in 1993 and in 1995 a customer suggested the business be renamed “Beverley’s On Main Street”, which was an instant hit.

This was adopted and for the past 25 years Bev has provided a passionate approach to fashion with old fashioned quality service. Beverley welcomed Mel as the new owner of Beverley’s On Main Street and will be assisting in the transition. “I’m not gone yet,” she said. “But the time is coming, and I look forward to handing over to Mel, who has some great ideas and will continue our great service and stock.” Mel said she was delighted to take on the store and continue Bev’s legacy. “It’s such a privilege to have taken over from Bev, I hope to continue her efforts in creating a welcoming and friendly store environment,” she said. “I’ve also got some great ideas to continue offering a great range to our customers.” Bev and Mel would like to invite future and current customers to join them for drinks and nibbles from 4.30pm to 5.30pm on Thursday, August 16, at the store.

During that time, Ms Hewitt has developed and implemented a range of highly innovative and evidence-based wellbeing programs that have improved residents’ quality of life; while also supervising physiotherapy students from the University of Sydney on clinical placements in the Tweed Valley. “What (Jennie) does makes such a difference in the residents’ lives,” said Deb Morrison the Care Manager at Feros Village Wommin Bay. “She focuses on giving each one a sense of purpose and something to look forward to. She works with the families too, to make sure they get the right things.” Ms Hewitt said she was humbled by the recognition and award. “I genuinely love my work and feel so blessed and inspired by an amazing team at Feros Care and the residents in our villages,” she said. “It is the collective good humour and stoicism of these wonderful older adults that has inspired me to strive for change.” Driven by her determination to challenge the way therapy is funded by government in residential care, Ms Hewitt has presented the results of the Sunbeam trial to the Minister for Aged Care, Ken Wyatt, and shared findings with the working party currently reviewing aged care funding. The work is now being used to inform policy makers of new effective therapies for this group. Inspired by the success of the program, Feros Care has expanded the clinical exercise therapy to its other villages.

A TWEED woman who spends her days helping seniors live positive lives has received a lifetime achievement award at the 2018 Aged and Community Services Australia ACSA (NSW and ACT) Aged Care Awards. Jennie Hewitt, who has been a Positive Living Co-ordinator at Feros Care’s Wommin Bay residential village since early 2015, received the Aged & Community Services Australia honour at its awards ceremony in Sydney on Thursday, July 26. She will now represent NSW and the ACT at the national awards ceremony at the ACSA National Summit in September. Ms Hewitt has worked with seniors as a physiotherapist since 1989 and in the aged care sector specifically since 2008. She completed her PhD through the University of Sydney in July after conducting a first-of-its-kind clinical trial to test the effect of an evidence-based strength and balance program on falls and quality of life in residential aged care, including a critical cost-benefit analysis. The ‘Sunbeam Trial’, which has since been internationally published, included 16 aged care facilities and 221 residents with an average age of 87 years, up to 101 years. The groundbreaking results showed a 55 per cent reduction in falls for participants which was the most positive outcome of any similar trial to date. Ms Hewitt joined Feros Care in January 2015 and has been responsible for mentoring and co-ordinating the positive living teams and volunteers at its residential villages in Bangalow, Wommin Bay and Byron Bay.

I'm not getting older, I'm just becoming a classic

Discover the secret to living longer

“It’s a wonderful way for people get together, to learn and share their knowledge,” president of U3A Tweed Coast Rachel Hawken said. “It gives people a reason to get up in the morning, somewhere to go. “It’s good for self esteem and confidence and this feeds into their physical and mental wellbeing.” Rachel knows only too well how difficult social isolation can be. “We arrived in Kingscliff 15 years ago from New Zealand without knowing anyone,” she said. “I am a librarian and knew all about the importance of community engagement so joined U3A. “Someone suggested I start a Life Writing course because of my background.

“I began with three people in the class, now we have four Life Writing courses at U3A Tweed Coast. “I rarely go out now without bumping into another U3A member; it’s just a big friendly community.” Professor Haslam said that when you retire, don’t worry about the money, use it to service your social life. “Be a member of lots of groups - it’s called social identity capital and research has shown you will live longer when you invest in that capital,” he said.

A GROWING number of pensioners from across the Tweed Shire and Australia are backing early calls for a Royal Commission into aged care, with recent comments from Opposition Leader Bill Shorten resonating with the elderly. Among the supporters are member of the Combined Pensioners & Superannuants Association (CPSA) who have welcomed Mr Shorten’s comments. “CPSA welcomes the Opposition Leader Bill Shorten's comments that the Labor Party will consider a Royal Commission into aged care,” CPSA Policy Officer Bronagh Power said. “CPSA agrees with Mr Shorten's acknowledgement that there is a national crisis in aged care, stemming from ineffective quality standards and inadequate staffing ratios. "After endless inquiries into aged care with very little changing as a result, it's clear that a Royal Commission is necessary to root out the widespread abuse and neglect of nursing home residents. "CPSA urges the Australian Government to conduct a Royal Commission into aged care."

TWEED SHIRE elderly residents are being encouraged to take part in community engagement activities in groups such as The University of the Third Age (U3A), as being social could help you enjoy a longer life. Be social and enjoy a long and happy life is the message coming from University of Queensland researchers who found that those with an active social life with lots of community engagement will live longer. “People can stop smoking, drink less alcohol, have a healthy diet and get physical but the most important thing they can do to live longer is become socially integrated,” Professor of Social and Organizational Psychology at UQ Alex Haslam said. “We have evolved to live in social groups so it is vital we receive this social support for good health and wellbeing.” And one of most important ways of making those critical social connections is by joining a community group. “Psychologically, community groups furnish a sense of belonging, a sense of self, it’s not just I and me, it’s also we and us,” Professor Haslam said. “That sense of community builds resilience, happiness, purpose and meaning; it’s the most important thing for a long life.” The University of the Third Age (U3A) is one such community group that promotes social interactions between older folk who simply want to share their skills and pursue lifelong learning.

Mr Rowan said the group appreciate donations of tools and materials from families of deceased men.

By Jo Kennett AFTER AN expansion last year, Tweed Heads Community Men’s Shed is going from strength to strength, providing a hub where men can find friendship and do work that helps the community, as well as rebuilding the Tweed Heads Community Markets into a thriving business. Market Coordinator Jim Rowan said that the markets, held every Sunday from 7am to 12pm at the Recreation Street and Florence Street oval, had been revived after the PCYC had to give up running them. “After much debate and discussion it was decided to try to resurrect and re-establish the markets to provide an income for us,” Mr Rowan said, “We decided not to make it commercial or specialist like the current trend but rather a community market helping the community in general. “We initially attracted only 10 or 12 stall holders but slowly we have built up our clientele, so our largest market so far has totalled nearly 70 stalls.” Mr Rowan said their success was due largely to a group of “extremely good volunteers”. “We can boast of the only true local mixed community market on the north coast of NSW and the Gold Coast every Sunday, rain, hail or shine,” Mr Rowan said. “We have local fruit and vegetables (from as far as Byron

Tweed businesses rally behind drought-stricken farmers By Jo Kennett WHAT BEGAN as a small fundraising effort by a handful of Tweed residents concerned about the impacts of the drought on farming communities, has turned into a huge, shire-wide fundraising drive. Tracy Law is coordinating fundraising for Drought Angels at the Roundabout Takeaway in Murwillumbah with partner Marc Law, Donna Needham and Penny Obst, with around 50 Murwillumbah businesses assisting in the team’s efforts. Tracy said they are now registered fundraisers for Drought Angels and have started a Murwillumbah District Supporting Drought Angels website. “We started here with a little fundraiser because I heard the statistics on farm suicides each week and I was horrified so I was just trying to raise awareness,” she said. “I thought that if the farmers had the real help they need their mental health wouldn’t be a problem.” Tracy said she and her husband had been through the paperwork that farming families are struggling to deal with during the floods. “It took nearly a year for one thing to go through but these farmers need cash in the bank right now,” she said. “There is so much paperwork and they need agencies to tick things off and they just don’t have time. “They are hand-feeding stock all day and don’t have time for that or to get counselling.” Tracy’s husband Marc Law said that one of their customers came

back from out west and said he couldn’t describe the devastation. “One of the farms got 10mm of rain and the grass started to grow but then the kangaroos came through like locusts and ate it because they are starving too,” Mr Law said. Tracy said they had raised $1,100 on a coffee fundraiser donating $3 for each cup sold. “Then we started to sell Drought Angels hats and we’re getting bumper stickers,” she said. “Saturday night we went on a girls night out to Uki pub and raised $600. “We are registered with Drought Angels because it’s such a sensible charity and there are no middle men.” Mrs Law said they had 50 donation tins out in businesses around Murwillumbah. “We talked to the new manager of Coles Murwillumbah and asked if we could put a tin at one of the cash registers and he said, “put one at all of them” which was fantastic,” she said. “We have a Monster Raffle starting Monday, August 13, with the most amazing prizes from so many fantastic business owners. “Network Video has offered to be a drop-off point for pre-paid Visa Cards which farmers prefer rather than food so they can spend it in their own communities and support the whole community as businesses are really suffering in these country towns. “Hakka Hire and O’Connors Carrying Service have just offered a truck and driver for deliveries out west.”

Tracy Law, Leanne Thomason, Dave Cochran and Marc Law

The team is also supporting Boots for Bushies and collecting feed, pet food and care packages. “There are a lot of different businesses doing different things to help so we are having a meeting to try to get everyone working together and not doubling up,” Mrs Law said. “We are going to form a panel so we can look at things like Christmas toy drives and back-to-school packs because even if rain comes they are in so much debt out there, farmers will still need help. Mr Law said that one of their customers, a truck driver named Brickie, had a full semi-trailer of hay that he had paid for himself ready to drive out west. “He said that if we could organise people to donate money for hay bales he could do another run,” he said The team will be leaving on August 31 with goods for farmers

and Brickie and his load of hay to the Drought Angels headquarters in Chinchilla. While The Weekly visited the Roundabout Takeaway local resident, Leanne Thomason came in with a load of organic avocados picked from her property with friends Scott Hannah and Dave Cochran to sell for the appeal. “We were wondering how we could help,” Ms Thomason said. “We had lots of avocados and they’re quite expensive to buy so I thought we could sell them so brought them in to Tracy.” Mrs Law said they had daycare centres and nursing homes writing letters of support for farmers. “We are going to be taking our collection tins around and hitting up pubs and footy games,” she said. “Murwillumbah is such a beautiful town and there are so many good people here.”

The South Tweed Sports Club is collecting food for the North Coast Drought Appeal while Buy a Bale has partnered with Return and Earn Network operator TOMRA allowing NSW residents to donate their 10c refunds on container returns to the drought relief appeal by scanning a special Buy a Bale barcode housed on the myTOMRA Australia website. Commonwealth Bank branches are also taking donations. People wanting to donate are encouraged to do so with registered charities such as Drought Angels, Rural Aid (Mental Health Initiative), Buy a Bale, Australian Red Cross, Aussie Helpers, Lions Need for Feed Disaster Relief, the Salvation Army, and the Foundation for Regional and Rural Renewal.

at the Footy with Quinny THE IMMORTALS have been announced. I guess naming five was a surprise as we all thought only one or two would be added but weren’t they worthy recipients. Those pre–war were honoured and rightly so. Dally Messenger pioneered the game and our highest honour is named after him. Dave Brown still holds the record for most points scored in a game at 45. Frank Burge was a try a game second rower scoring 146 in 154 games, simply amazing and scored 8 in one game – some don’t get 8 in a career! I read a super quote regarding their induction in that “those who drink the water, must thank those who dug the well”. We probably are not playing nor sitting at the top of the multi million dollar national/international game without those who played before us. Norm Provan – ten grand finals, four as coach is a remarkable achievement and one we will never see again. Teams can’t win back to back these days and the Dragons of the 56-66 era were simply unstoppable. I had a long discussion with some colourful racing identities on Sunday and it centred around Meninga.

He was on four Kangaroo tours, two of which captain, scored ‘that’ try in 92 off Stuart, throw in 42 games for Qld and a premiership and I’m comfortable with his addition. Plus, I can remember Mal in that Raiders team of the early 90’s when I fell in love with the greatest game of all, he gets my vote for sure. All talk this week has centred around the debacle at Penrith. Now it could be a masterstroke, but gee whiz who would want to be a Rugby League coach. Griffin takes over after they have come second last and guides them to the semi’s twice and sits in equal fourth spot this year and gets the bullet! Then they talk about getting Cleary back who they paid out three years ago and offer him more in order to keep his son. They really do love paying coaches to play golf for a year or two. It makes for interesting news going forward that’s for sure. Last round of the NRRRL this weekend and the contest between Cudgen and Tweed will be a beauty. Cudgen need to win to hold onto second spot and get the home semi against Ballina. Tweed Coast are deserved minor premiers and will be hard to beat. The Mustang should secure fourth spot this weekend against Lower Clarence on Saturday. See you at the Footy, Quinny.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Going pro with a little help from her friends Tweed sporting clubs

urged to apply for grants

SAE GROUP have helped local rising boxing star Rachel Loder to realise her dreams with a cheque for $11,000 and coming on board as her first major sponsor to help her go professional in the boxing world. Tweed-based SAE Group said they were incredibly proud to come on board as Rachel’s first sponsor. SAE Group Managing Director Glen Ashton said when he heard about Rachel’s story he knew the company would get behind Rachel and her goal. “I haven’t met too many 18-year olds with such big goals and the determination to realise them,” Mr Ashton said. “I have to say Rachel has inspired me as well, she’s taken me on as a student, and now I’ve got my own goals to get fighting fit as well.” Rachel turned 18 this year and is ready to take on the world. Born and bred in Banora Point, Rachel has her sights firmly fixed on making a name for herself in the boxing circuit. Rachel walked into the Kingscliff Boxing Stables just three years ago with the intention to try boxing to improve her fitness and was quickly hooked. Before long, Rachel found herself training every day and stepped into the ring for the first time just under 12 months of first taking up the sport. To date Rachel has had 39 amateur fights including some great successes early in her career, adding two state championships, one interstate championship, and two Australian titles in her own weight division, and one Australian championship in the weigh division above. “Rachel has serious determination, her persistence and dedication will get her everywhere,” Rachel’s trainer and Tweed boxing promoter Nick Midgely said.

“Rachel will be riddled with the flu and still turn up to training, we have to chase her out of here. “I don’t think she has ever missed a training session since starting three years ago. “Don’t ever underestimate her mental strength, she’s got a very bright future ahead of her.” Rachel will make her debut as a pro at the upcoming Boxing Mania at Seagulls on Saturday, August 11.

In an action packed line-up the night will be covered by Foxtel, with the drawcard title bout between Billel Dib and WBA Oceania Super featherweight champion Bauno Vifauviwili, from Tanzania. Tickets are available through ticketmart. com.au or call Nick Midgely on 0456 879 258 for further information (see below right advertisement for more details).

NATIONALS SENATOR for NSW John Williams is encouraging Tweed Shire sporting groups and clubs to apply for funding for a national $29.7 million program aimed at upgrading community sporting infrastructure. The Community Sport Infrastructure grant program has been launched by Federal Sports Minister Senator Bridget McKenzie, enabling sport and community organisations to apply for grants up to $500,000 to upgrade sporting infrastructure in 2018-19. Senator Williams said sporting groups should consider projects that would help build participation in physical activity, community partnerships and inclusiveness. “Sporting facilities are vital for inspiring physical activity and health, and also for building community spirit and pride,” Senator Williams said. “Improving lighting, playing surfaces and accessibility for different ages and genders are just some of the ways sporting facilities can be made safer and more appealing, and I encourage sporting groups from the Tweed to Byron Bay to think about projects that could enhance their facilities. “Even the smallest of projects can have a big impact on boosting local business, economy, health and social cohesiveness.” The program will be managed by Sport Australia, the Australian Government’s leading agency for sport and physical activity. Successful grants will support projects such as: • Upgrades to playing surfaces, including multi-sport upgrades and resurfacing that supports increased use; • Building, expanding and/or upgrading change rooms, particularly for girls and women and officials’ areas; • External entry/exit accessible amenities; • Improved sports lighting and safety lighting, including installation of solar panels; • Improvements to ground and court capacity that support increased use; • Improvements to spectator amenities; and • Internal/external amenity uplift. Applications will remain open until September 14 and more information on the Community Sport Infrastructure grant program can be found at: www.sportaus.gov.au/grants_and_ funding/community_sport_infrastructure_grant_program

Not only is it a night to celebrate – for which all Potterheads will know is the boy who lived birthday. “We just want to celebrate everything Harry Potter,” Epic Skate owner Leanne McMahon said. “With prizes for the best dressed at both Friday night sessions, 5pm to 7pm for the littlies and 7.30pm to 10pm for the big kids we encourage you to pull on your robes and house colours and get all dressed up for our magical event. “If you’re stuck for ideas head to our Facebook events page for heaps of dress up ideas.” Skaters can pick a house colour: red for Griffindor, blue for Ravenclaw, Slytherin green or Hufflepuff yellow. “Sorry but our sorting hat is on the blink so you will have to choose,” Ms McMahon said. “Watch out when you’re skating through the rink fog. “Make sure you steer clear of Aragog’s spider corner and don’t forget to duck or the Dementors kiss of death will get you. “When you need some refreshments hit our HoneyDukes café for all our Potter inspired magical food and drink from polyjuice to Slytherin pizzas. “Don’t forget to put your name in the Goblet of Fire on the way in at the front counter to win spot prizes during the night. “See you all this Friday night for a family night of magical fun.” For more info go to www.epicskate.com.au, Facebook or call us on (07) 5523 9660

THE BREAKER UPPERERS

The great success of Hunt for the Wilderpeople a couple of years ago has established a distinct brand of New Zealand comedy, where the narrative revolves around naïve characters and the humor has surreal tones, nervous politeness, and international appeal.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Several of these comedies have been directed by Taika Waititi, who is the executive producer of the new The Breaker Upperers. The Sydney film festival’s opening-night film is directed by Jackie van Beek and Madeleine Sami, two charismatic and personable New Zealand comedians who star also as the main characters in the film. They play Jen and Mel, who have been best friends for 15 years since they discovered they were dating the same man. Both are so soured on love that they have set up an agency to break up couples that cannot let go. For a fee they deliver a relationship coup de grace by any means necessary: through song, by pretending to be outraged former lovers, crashing weddings and even faking deaths. Mel and Jen’s golden rule for dealing with clients is “don’t get attached”. This is predictably broken when Mel takes a liking to an 18-year-old thick-witted rugby player, Jordan, who doesn’t understand why his girlfriend didn’t get the message that he was dumping her, since he texted her an emoji of a broken heart followed by a thunder cloud..! . The Breaker Upperers is Sami and Van Beek’s film, and it runs off the energy and rapport of this affable pair, whose smartmouthed performances are full of humor, sometimes with a surrealist touch.

Mel with the major prize for Best Dressed

Released in May in New Zealand, The Breaker Upperers is already ranked among the top box office hits in the country, and is fast rising up the box office ladder in Australia as well.

THE TWEED Valley Banana Festival is gearing up for the first of several main events with the Banana Festival Fashion Parade on Friday, August 10, at Murwillumbah Civic Centre. Residents are invited to take part in the glitz and glamour of the first event which also marks the return of the iconic Banana Festival, one of the longest running rural festivals in Australia. Meanwhile, The Weekly has caught up with Banana Festival Queen Entrant Layla Dodds this week to find out about her campaign for the coveted title and who is sponsored by Taylor Made Car Sales and Hire. Layla, 18, has dreamt of becoming Banana Queen since her early childhood. “Becoming Banana Queen to me means becoming a community role model for all the children like the queens in the past were for me,” she said. “I sadly have not been able to fundraise as much as I would have liked, due to work and university commitments. “I have though helped with the fundraising activities (along with the other Queens and Teen Queens) for the Banana Festival Committee / Apex which have been all the car washes and selling raffle tickets in the street.”

Layla is the oldest of five children and was born and raised in murwillumbah. “I attended Murwillumbah Primary School and Murwillumbah High School which I graduated from last year,” she said. “This is my third year being a part of this iconic festival in which has let me learn more about this community I have grown up in and love. “I also have come from a family that has been part of the Tweed Shire for a long time and by being in this festival it has allowed me to connect to this shire like my family in the past has.” Layla is currently employed at Murwillumbah McDonalds where she has worked since 2016. “I am also currently studying a Bachelor of Nursing at Griffith University on the Gold Coast where I plan to go into work as either a pediatric nurse or an emergency nurse,” she said. “In the future I would like to further my career in health to become a paramedic or an occupational therapist as I am passionate about working in health and caring for others. “I have many passions and hobbies they include reading, cooking, motorbikes, hanging with family and friends as well as caring for them.”

Cabarita Mini Diggers is a locally owned business specializing in tight access and difficult site excavations. You will find us punctual and reliable with a great attitude to completing your jobs at best possible costs. We have a great range of specific machinery such as the 1.8 ton case excavator capable of fitting through a 1050mm opening. Removing the roof with our hiab crane allows it to work underneath or gain access through low roofed areas. It includes attachments such as a 1m tilt mud bucket, 600, 450, 350 trenching buckets and a ripper. Auger sizes 450 and 350. The Vemmer 450 SX high track skid steer loader is great for operating in all kinds of terrain. It has a 4-in-1 bucket with a good capacity for moving material. Access width is 1050mm. Our tip truck is 6.2 ton with small hiab crane. We do a wide range of jobs, not only the tight access ones, plus rubbish clean ups, pool digs, concrete subgrades, turf soil preparation, levelling, trenching, electrical, plumbing, driveways and drainage, as well as palm tree and small stump removal, plus many more.

Gold for rising archery star

MURWILLUMBAH HIGH School student Jabara Callaghan-Audet was recently selected in the Australian Archery Team to compete in the World Archery Oceania Championships, held in New Caledonia over the July school holidays. But the big news is he won gold medals for Australia in both his events, the 1440 and Matchplay. As a member of the Byron Shire Archery Club, Jabara trains rain, hail or shine twice a week under the watchful eye of his coach. Jabara said that training in all weather conditions is important because it allows you to learn to overcome distractions such as rain or heat. “You can’t choose the weather on competition day so the better prepared you are the better you will perform,” he said. Jabara enjoys not only the demands of competition but also the friendships it has brought him. On top of that he trains at home for at least five or six hours a week. He has been competing at archery since he was ten years old but admits he has been playing with bows and arrows a lot longer than that. As well as his successes in the Trans-Tasman Championships earlier this year, he has won gold medals in Queensland State Championships that he has competed in so far this year.

He has also been selected as the youngest member of the Queensland squad for an Archery Australia Regional Development Program for archers considered to have the potential to go on to represent Australia in future World Archery championship events.

Jabara Callaghan-Audet is an archery ace

Cattle underpass grants TWEED FARMERS are being encouraged to apply for grants to fund the construction of cattle underpasses beneath public roads and the installation of warning signs and flashing lights. Member for Lismore Thomas George said underpasses will increase safety for both livestock and farmers “Underpasses remove the need for cattle to cross roads, improving safety for livestock owners, their families and employees,” Mr George said. “The Cattle Underpass Scheme will be particularly beneficial to dairy producers and other farmers in Lismore who need to move stock across roads to milking facilities each day. “The NSW Government will offer grants up to $70,000, to cover a half of the cost of installing an underpass or up to $10,000 to cover a half of the cost of installing warning signs and flashing lights.” The investment delivers on a commitment from the NSW

Liberals and Nationals as part of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the NSW Farmers Association to improve farm and road safety. Mr George said along with the productivity boost for producers, the scheme would reduce hazards for motorists. “Underpasses will reduce the risk of road collisions, traffic delays and road surface damage,” he said. “The underpasses must be constructed primarily for the movement of livestock with permission from the road authority.” Every application received will be assessed against eligibility criteria listed in the Cattle Underpass Scheme guidelines. Applications for the grants close on October 15, 2018, and will be considered in the order in which they are received. More information about eligibility and application requirements is available from https://www.dpi. nsw.gov.au/cup.

Holding with Shot Judy Tuckey REGION ONE CHAMPIONSHIPS, this year, were conducted at Cabarita Beach BC with players from Northern Rivers, Clarence River, Mid North Coast and Tweed Byron Districts in the mix challenging for a berth at the State titles to be conducted in September. Pottsville’s awesome foursome, George Moore, Doreen Buckley, Jan Appleton and Judy Ahearn, in the Senior Fours, began well in their clash with Ballina’s finest. Playing strongly, the girls were 18-4 up after 13 ends. Ballina then fired up to keep Pottsville scoreless for the next six ends. However, Pottsville recovered, fought on fiercely to hold the lead, and closed the game with a 6 shot surplus. Their final against MNC’s Park Beach evolved into a tough encounter with the lead alternating several times. With the card on 14-14 at the completion of 19 ends, Moore and Co then secured a count of 2 followed by a 3 to take the game and score a berth in the State play-offs. Brunswick Heads’ Lorraine McCormick, Jenny Lofts, Kerry Dexter and Sherril Pearce certainly delivered a grand

performance in the Open Fours. Taking control early in their clash with Ballina, the ladies held a convincing lead throughout the game to claim a resounding victory. However, their spar with Urunga was a different kettle of fish that went down to the wire. Whilst keeping their opponents at bay with a narrow margin for 19 ends, catch up happened on the 20th end as the score hit 16-16. As the players swapped blows on the final end victory was not be theirs as Urunga snookered our girls to claim victory by one miserable shot. Coral Nathan and Trish Pollard (Pottsville) made an early exit from the Open Pairs following their defeat at the hands of Park Beach, the eventual winners of this category. Kingscliff’s June Munn and Laurel Poole presented well in the Senior Pairs. Whilst trailing Sawtell in the first 8 ends, the duo came back strongly collecting 11 unanswered shots in the next four ends to lead 13-11 and the battle began. In a heart stopping continuance of the contest, June and Laurel were unlucky to suffer defeat, again by that ‘one elusive shot’. Alana Sharp (Pottsville) was down 22-7 in the Singles against Ballina’s Hayley McDonnell before striking form. In a tremendous fight back, Sharp reduced the deficit to 22-21 in just 6 straight ends. McDonnell then collected a count of 2, followed by Sharp’s single. Last end and McDonnell drew

: L to R - Awesome Foursome – George Moore, Doreen Buckley, Jan Appleton, Judy Ahearn (Pottsville)

the shots to claim victory and dismiss Sharp from the comp. Mary Chisholm, Carolyn Caine and Jenny Glasby (Condong) contesting the Triples were relegated to an early retirement by the overall winners from Ballina. Cabarita’s Bill Davey and Sue Harriman suffered a similar fate in their Mixed Pairs campaign. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Fingal hosts AirAsia Juraki Surf Invitational 2018

Juraki Surf Invitational 2017 Opening Ceremony with the Coodijngburra Dancers

THE ANNUAL AirAsia Juraki Surf Invitational is on at Fingal Head from Friday August 10th to Sunday 12th August and the organisers are hoping to see a good crowd to enjoy the festivities. The event will begin with a Welcome to Country and Mixing of the Waters ceremony at 9am on Friday, followed by the surfing contest with free surf lessons for children and markets followed by live music at 5pm. On Saturday the surf contest begins at 7am and wraps at 4pm with a Pacific Teams event pitting Australia against New Zealand at 10am, a surf groms contest and the Cultural Presentation Night at Fingal School at 5.30pm.

On Sunday the surf contest begins at 7am but usually wraps around lunchtime, culminating in the finals and presentation. Event coordinator Joel Slabb said that the surfing will be a highlight with some “amazing legends” of the Indigenous surfing world. “We have Russ Molony, Joe Haddon and up and coming juniors, Taj Simon, Rohnin Henry-Micale and of course our locals,” Mr Slabb told The Weekly “The long boards will see Lucas Proudfoot hit the water, then we have Jalaan Slabb in the womens, and Julung Slabb in the Juniors with a few other locals.” “The cultural aspect of the event is something to look forward to with the traditional Welcome to Country and Mixing

of the Waters ceremony and on Saturday 11th, 5:30pm at Fingal Head Public School there will be a surf and culture night with Aboriginal, Maori and Pacific Islander dancing, followed by music by Tweed Heads local, Rhiana Perkins, Fingal local Budjerah Slabb and more.” Mr Slabb said they had a strong field of competitors this year. “Last year we had 65 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander competitors in the Juraki Surf Invitational as well as 40 in the Juraki Pacific Teams Challenge,” he said. “This year we’re expecting around 80 competitors with a massive influx of juniors and groms, which we are really excited about.”

Mr Slabb said they would love to see the Tweed/Gold Coast community at the event. “We encourage all Aboriginal/ TI surfers to take part and everyone to come along and share with us in surf and culture,” he said. “This year we have markets, children activities with local group, Green Heroes, surf lessons over the weekend with In2Surf, food, music, culture and so much more. “We also have some amazing sponsors on board this year including AirAsia, that have been a massive support. Without our sponsors, surfing family and community this event would not be possible.”

Steph Gilmore Grabs 2nd Place at US Open andExtendsRatingsLead OUR KINGSCLIFF Supergirl Stephanie Gilmore has increased her ratings lead with a runner-up finish in the US Open of surfing. The surf was about equal to a really bad day at Duranbah, but Steph used her “Happy Gilmore” attitude to surf to the conditions, and really rip in. It was the second runner-up finish in this event, but with Lakey Peterson, her nearest rival to Gilmore gaining a 7th World Title being knocked out by eventual winner Courtney Conoluge in the quarter finals, Gilmore’s lead

is extended. Gilmore was pretty happy with the result. “Huntington is a tough one for me, I love it here but I’m always finding myself just struggling to get a good result so to come here and get a second place is great,” Gilmore said. “Courtney (Conlogue) was on fire after coming back from that injury and I’m stoked for her to get that win. And she knocked out Lakey (Peterson) which is pretty nice, but I proved to myself that if I really apply everything I have that I can still get a good result.” The next event for the ladies is at Kelly Slater’s wave pool where Gilmore has reigned supreme. It would be awesome for her to get the win there and get closer to that 7th World Title.

Teahupoo Starts Saturday Morning Well some would say one of the most dangerous waves on the planet. Teahupoo in Tahiti is one scary beast over a very shallow reef. Not for the faint hearted. The waiting period commences from around 4am Saturday morning, and it will be one very eagerly awaited event with so many surfers close enough to be in contention for the title. One of those wearing the yellow leader’s jersey, is Filipe Toledo, and he is well known for not being a fan of the wave. Filipe’s closest rival, Julian Wilson on the other hand, is cool,

calm and collected in waves of consequence, and is a Pipeline Master. It sets up as a very interesting event as far as world title aspirations go. To add another twist to this, Toledo has avoided the US Open (Where you might say the conditions are his bread and butter), to go and practice at Teahupoo. Well, he has certainly been having a big dig. Check out the video on the WSL website, where he is on a rather large one, way deep and gets snotted. Over the falls and onto the reef. His back looks like a pizza, and he does a few laps of the yard after the lime juice is applied. But then they show him getting deep and clean and making a tight one with ease…. Has he found a way to conquer Teaupoo… Well we will find out from Saturday.

Celebrate the Life of Wayne Deane this Friday The legend that is Wayne Deane will be celebrated by family and friends at a service on Friday 10th August at 8am at the Kirra Hill Community Centre. A paddleout will follow at Kirra Point with Colleen and Wayne’s Dad John to spread his ashes out to sea, afterwards family and friends will meet at Rainbow Bay Surf Club at Snapper Rocks, to continue celebrating the life of a true legend of the Coolangatta/Tweed area. RIP WD!

The race that turned Swell Lady pink COMMODORE BILL Fenelon is away at the helm of tall ship “South Passage” sailing from Townsville to Palm Island and Hinchinbrook Island. Last Sunday a light breeze with a strong incoming tide almost thwarted the first race of the final day of the Winter Race Series. 36 sailors in15 boats, including 7 Corsairs and 4 NS14’s, lined up for the downstream start. Race 1 saw the early lead by the Lasers eroded by the NS14’s and Corsairs on the following legs. Lex Branch on Impulse “Splitter” did well with a first on scratch in race 1. Mark Reynolds, Matt Andrews and Charlie Grace were next taking 1st in their class on Corsair “Keenas” The crew of Corsair “Swell Lady” dressed up in pink to entertain the fleet when the wind died. Deborah Flannery in a pink mohawk mask set their pink spinnaker well to take 3rd place in the 2nd race. The first three places on scratch in Race 2 was taken by Lex Branch, then John Pring and Kate Yeomans on Lasers. Alison Blatcher, Liz and Oliver Grace

were 2nd in the Corsairs on Melita III and a 1st in the next race with Camille Lettieri taking over from Oliver. Russ Timbs with Rave Chester and Sid Willis had two exceptional races, leading the Corsairs in race 2 until wind shifts took them down to 5th. The NS14s/MG14s struggled too – Junior Tom Busbridge put in an excellent effort with on board coach Adam Hurt on “Zazen” to take 1st in their class in race 1 and was just pipped by Dave Robinson and son Cooper in race 2. Dave and Cooper also got a 1st place on handicap. New members Sandie Williams and Roger Clark got some on board coaching in the second race from Matt Andrews taking 2nd in the corsair class on “Rockin’ Robyn”. In the juniors Thomas Busbridge skippered NS14 Zazen and Kynan Luescher and Taj Krasna sailed a 125 for the first time. Taj and Kynan had so much fun with the spinnaker they sailed passed the course mark and on up the river and needed a tow back. Safety boat drivers and timekeepers were Bryan and Muriel Townsend, Geoff Carter, Suzanne

THE TWEED Coast Raiders lead the league by four points going into the Round 18 clash against arch rivals Cudgen after a 30-6 win against Mullumbimby at Les Burger Field on Sunday August 5. The Tweed Coast team started well, with Justin King scoring up the right side in the first couple of minutes. Mullumbimby did well in the first half dominating most of the half through the middle. The Raiders made a lot of mistakes with a lot of dropped ball and forward passes. The score was 10-6 at half-time and the Raiders started well after the break with a couple of early tries. Mullumbimby had a few players out with injuries and didn’t have many reserves and they started struggling, running out of puff with the Raiders a much fitter team. Players player were Kalani Hensby, Jarred de Thierry and Jamie Donaldson. The Raiders have a big game this week against Cudgen. They haven’t won there in the last three years so are hoping to get a good crowd of supporters to Kingscliff to help break that hoodoo. Reserve Grade won 28-4 and this weekend will be their last game. Cudgen and Raiders Under 18s are tied on points in second so it will be three great games. The Raiderettes won 10-4 to take them to fourth position and booked themselves a spot in the finals

Mustangs settling in for the finals after win against Evans Head Bombers MURWILLUMBAH MUSTANGS are well positioned in fourth place on the ladder going into the final round after defeating Evans Head 44-16 on Saturday August 4 at Evans Head. Coach Nathan Jordan said he was pleased with the way the season has been panning out. “Another road trip and one step closer to the semi-finals,” Jordan wrote on the team website. “Our first 30 minutes was great with our shape and execution setting up four first half tries. “The scoreboard blew out a bit in the second half, but the Evans boys never stopped trying and we enjoyed a beer together after the game.”

“We have put ourselves in a great spot to give this competition a decent shake after a slow start to the year.” Best on field for the Mustangs were Remi Vignau, Syd Billtoff and Jonty Van De Scheur. Reserve Grade lost 26-22 with Will McLean, Dylan Brooks and Jasmin Purcell best on field and are in 6th position going into Round 18. The Under 18s won 32-20 and sit in 7th place. The Mustangs ladies were missing six regular players going down 16-0 despite a valiant effort from the team. They are in 5th place going into the final round. Players player was Zoe Underwood, with Brodie Palmer, Kara Saddler and Alex Field also earning mentions. Next week Murwillumbah play Lower Clarence at Yamba.

Cudgen Hornets ready for big clash after Casino win CUDGEN HORNETS are in a great position going into the final round after a dominant 48-24 win against the Casino Cougars at Casino on Sunday, August 5. Coach Pat Rosser said that the Hornets got off to a great start. “Casino scored early in the game but we responded with several tries in quick succession,” Rosser said. “They threw the ball around and asked plenty of questions of us defensively on the edges.” The Hornets had a tidy lead 30-12 going into the second half. “We put ourselves under pressure with some ordinary ball control but bounced back to score a few long-range tries in the second half,” Rosser said.

Best on field for the Hornets were Josh Sleba with outstanding ball running and defensive game, James Ryan in the front row was getting the boys rolling forward and Myles Donnelly again was strong. The Hornets are in second place behind the Tweed Coast Raiders going into Round 18. Rosser said he was looking forward to this weekend’s clash against the competition leaders. “This week will give us an indication of where we are leading into the business end,” Rosser said. “Tweed Coast sit well above the pack in terms of points and being dominant throughout the season so we expect a nice fast, physical arm wrestle in our last home game.”
